The sun was giving us a heck of a time while trying to take these photos. We took so many and I only got a few that were decent enough for a blog post. Winter sun can be really tricky sometimes!
I have been in a "red" mood lately. I'm going to blame Valentine's Day. Every time this holiday comes around I feel like wearing red. It must be all of the hearts!
It's been really cold around here so I've been bundling up in my coziest sweaters. This one is one of my favorites! I tend to get overheated in sweaters sometimes but this one has little holes in it ( you can see it better in the closeup photos below) and that helps keep me cool while I'm indoors in the heat.
I just got this jewelry at Charming Charlie while I was out over the weekend and I think it's so pretty! I've worn it twice this week already. I love the deep red. I am so addicted to that store!
Are you as in love with Charming Charlie as I am? Is it FREEZING where you are too?

Red and black look so good together. You are rocking this!
ReplyDeleteSorry ... hate to say it, but it is already HOT here .. in the mid 70's!! YUCK!!!!! I am loving the red on you ... and you can always blame it on "wear red for women's heart health" -- that's the 6th this month :)
ReplyDeleteI love love love that sweater and you look fab! I'm kind of obsessed with stripes and black + white. And yes, to CC and the freezing cold. Somebody posted the other day about "where is warm weather and lake days?" Seriously... I'm kinda over the freezing cold. At least you have snow to show for it. I can't even boast that.
ReplyDeleteUggghh, I'm so jealous!! It is COLD here! I think I need to move south for the winters or something. haha! And yes, I totally forgot about that coming up on the 6th!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much <3 I'm a bit obsessed with black and white stripes too. lol! I can't wait until it starts feeling like Spring outside. We didn't have much of a summer last year, so I'm hoping this year is better.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Llinos! I love red and black together too. One of my favorite combinations!
ReplyDeleteyep, I can totally relate to the sun not being your friend... I have to find a good shady spot to take photos or else I just come out with my eyes closed lol it's tough being a blogger! lol

haha Yeah, I normally try to find a shadier spot to take my photos but the sun was setting so it was a little too dark and I had to catch that last bit of sunshine. lol! #bloggerproblems
ReplyDeleteThat's cute Julie... I've enjoyed your recent posts as they help to remind me winter doesn't have to be dull and can be just as much fun as other seasons. I may have to try and replicate this look :-)

Thank you so much! And let me know if you do replicate this outfit! I would love to see it!
ReplyDeleteI think it's cute that you wear more red around Valentine's day, that's really festive! Your necklace is really pretty, I should start wearing more jewellery but I always forget to accessorize. It's cold here and I am SO tired of the freezing weather and bad driving conditions and cleaning the snow off of my car! Hurry up summer!
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely in red! Keep it up! That sweater looks very cozy and matches well with your pants.
ReplyDeleteIt's freezing here today too! But then it'll be in the 60s for the next week. Denver weather is so weird... For pictures, I try to not stand in direct sunlight. Makes us look less washed out :)
Oh man, I've taken a few photos where the sun just wasn't cooperating! But you look great in them! Love that sweater!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I always end up with squinty eyes in the sun. lol! That's definitely one of my favorite sweaters. So soft and cozy. It actually has a split back but I forgot to take a pic of it...oops!
ReplyDeleteI'm such a little kid about holidays! I love them. You lets you get excited about something and celebrate! lol. I tend to forget to accessorize a lot of the time too. I ended up putting all of my necklaces on a corkboard right on my wall so I could see them. If they aren't hiding away in a drawer then I feel like I will wear them more. Out of sight, out of mind. And I'm with you! Please hurry up summer! lol
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! My husband says he likes when I wear red, I just figured it was because I don't often. haha! The weather is a little bipolar around here too. Earlier this week it was below the teens and yesterday it went up to almost 50! So weird
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I have another outfit to wear for tomorrow's Go Red for Women day. lol! I own more red that I thought I did!
ReplyDeletenothing wrong with that! Without begging or sounding annoying please put it in the linkup on my post! i'm still itty bitty and i've never done a linkup before, i don't want it to be a complete fail! I tried to find your email so i didn't have to comment but my work computer didn't want to load your whole blog. sorry!
