“K” is for Plaid {Initial Sweaters Just Go with Plaid X 2}

Initial SweaterSometimes there are just certain items that go together; it can’t be helped. That’s how I feel about an initial sweater and plaid–they just automatically go together. In this post I’ve taken one of my favorite sweaters (even though I find it a bit too short–I did pick it up in a HK market afterall!) and matched it with plaid TWICE! One version is a little casual with jeans dressed up with heels and a pearl strand belt.

PlaidThis other version is a bit more polished with a blazer and riding boots. The boots….they do look rugged, but that’s because they’re from 1993. I bought them while I was studying abroad in Florence Italy. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to part with these–oh I saved and saved (if that’s possible while studying abroad!), and I would try them on weekly until finally they were mine. Wow, that makes those boots over 20 years old! Italians….they know how to craft a shoe!

  1. Well i think both these outfits are amazing. I love the smart shoes (which incidentally, i have been looking for a pair like that!) but i also love those italian boots! I think sometimes, boots like this look even better with time. So glad you’ve never gotten rid of them, they are gorgeous, and work so well with the tartan too!XX

    1. Thanks Rachel! I appreciate you coming by…I love your style, so your remarks mean even more. The heels are still available at Target–do you have Target in your neck of the woods? They’re only $15US right now! Steal!! And yes, I LOVE my Italian riding boots. They’re so special to me:D Thanks for the link up! A x

  2. I NEED AN INITIAL SWEATER. Initial sweaters make such a statement and yours is so chic. I like both outfits but I especially love the second look with the plaid pants – super elegant. And hey I didn’t know you were a librarian, Ann. How cool!

    Happy November and enjoy your week! Ada. =)
