Cozy Little Elk



Sweater: Chicwish
Scarf & Dress (worn as skirt): Thrifted
Pendant: Modcloth
Tights: Hue
Boots: Delia's






Aren't big cozy sweaters the best thing since sliced bread right now?  Does anyone know where that phrase came from?  What makes sliced bread so wonderful anyways?  

Ok, enough of my being random here - all it has been doing lately where I live is snowing.  Yes it's getting old and it's making me wonder if Punxsutawney Phil was truly correct in his early spring prediction.  Can you tell I'm a bit stir crazy?  

Nonetheless, this whole layering - oversized sweater, skirt, tights, my grandfather's thick socks, & old boots is my uniform as of late.  It makes this winter thing just a tad more bearable.  And by layering I mean - I may just be wearing long Johns too ;-).  The Mr. and I wore the same colored pants/tights.  We are just nerds like that.  

So here's hoping for an early spring.  Fingers crossed darlings!

Love bunches,

  1. Haha! I was going to comment on the fact that your legs matched! I love it. I cannot believe you found a sweater with a collar on it-that is just too darling. It looks so very cozy too and I just love everything about this! It's supposed to blizzard here today...so yes-much more snow to come so they tell me!

  8. You always manage to make layers seem sleek. There's definitely a science to that.

    That necklace reminds me of a big ol' eye. Love it.

  18. That is one gorgeous cozy sweater. I love the whole outfit on you. Big sweaters sweem to be all I've been wearing too, and am also so ove this snow business. Were scheduled for more today ... sigh. It was lovely, dry and bright yesterday, albeit extremely cold, so I was happy yo have a great walk about, but damn if I didn't get too far from home to easily return, when I realized the extra camera battery I brought with me had actually been drained. Eek, I was without camera! Aren't those the exact times that you see the best photo ops?! :s

  19. I looove this outfit, so adorable! That sweater would be perfect for my weekend in the poconos :D It totally looks like an awesome "up at the cabin" sort of outfit. Beautiful and so cozy!! I can totally relate as the cold is really starting to get to me. I have super sensitive skin too so after a while my hands get really dry and my face gets itchy- it sucks, haha! But I am keeping my fingers crossed for an early spring too, I hope you have an awesome day, Marisa!! You look fabulous! :)

  21. I've always preferred big hunks of ripped bread myself! But this sweater is awesome indeed! It's so cute on you - it's very you. You seem to layer well too - I really don't layer well. My version of winter layering is adding a scarf. I need to move somewhere where it doesnt snow, I was not made for it!

  25. I do think spring is coming sooner than it usually does for us though. . .I hear birdies chirping!

    Very cute outfits! My husband thought your husband was cool in this (he's next to me). ;)

  28. When I first saw the photo of you in your sweater, before seeing you write "cozy" I immediately wanted to cuddle up in bed with a sweater just like it! It definitely feels cozy, even across the internet!

  29. such an adorable sweater Marisa and I am so jealous of the beautiful snow and layering! I cannot wait for it to get a bit colder in Australia so I can at least throw a cardigan on! Hope you're doing well xo Ilana @My Modern Vintage
