rainy days and saturdays and sundays.

it was a weekend full of gloom and rain. normally i'd be loving this, but everyone was sick. other than a quick trip to blockbuster for some christmas movies, hot chocolate with marshmallows, and peppermint sticks, i was stuck at home, missing a crucial weekend for last-minute gift-shopping. this huge, boxy sweater easily became one of my favorites to throw on over shorts and leggings because it drapes in all the right places and is long enough that it covers the behind. also worn here.

(sweater poncho, express; two-toned denim leggings, f21; hat, mossimo)
if you like this sweater poncho, try the sonya sweater @ [oomph.]


last weekend, i was able to do some shopping, and picked up these sequined leggings. i've been wanting a skirt, but haven't been able to find the right one. thinking of wearing this to our office christmas party on wednesday...all black with a pop of red lips. whoa. lol.


GIVEAWAY COMING SOON

Oh no, sorry to hear about your not so fun weekend. If it helps, its currently snowing here in the UK and I've been stuck at home for weeks whilst waiting to start my new job. I also own many sweater jumpers cause they are just so comfortable. P.S I can't believe you live in Hawaii, what a dream!! I REALLY want to go there on holiday one day. Thanks for sharing love Sia x

My dear,

You are sooo the rock star with those leggings. I love them! And I think they would look amazing on you. Can't wait to see the final outfit!
I also love the beenie. I've got a blue one but it doesn't have the fur that you have. :( That's my favorite part on yours.
Lastly, you look mighty comfy yet still very chic (as always) with that sweater!

Have a very Merry Christmas!

Love the outfit. I love the silhouette your sweater has. Nice leggings as well! I hope you're feeling better. But, I can say that I'm not a big fan of Christmas shopping with the many crowds.

Thanks for your comment!

The sequin leggings are A+! H&M has so many loose sweater poncho-esque tops. I tried on a couple yesterday but they weren't working in my favor unfortunately. But they were very very comfy! I'll keep trying :)

Bonnie said...

Sequined leggings are hot.
Annddd I can't believe that you are wearing a tuke!! Mr. A wants a tuke. I say no because he has a big head, and I think it will look funny on him. It looks cute on you, though!
xoxo.
