It’s always interesting to see how a trend will play out. I remember earlier this year, people were making a big deal over the ‘new silhouette’ something that wasn’t so form-fitting hit the general population. I personally think it’s good to have your options open. Lately since it’s been colder, I’ve been living in my chunky knits… this sweater coat to the left, I’ve been wearing all last week, and this week, I’m wearing another vintage number which I’ll show you this weekend. I kind of feel like a slob, but on the other hand, they get compliments, and I’m warm.
Apparently I haven’t been the only one coveting the chunky knits.. Face Hunter seems to be very good about catching women wearing this in a cool way. I was going through my feed subscriptions (if you don’t have yours set up, you should do it, I can’t live without Google reader).
