the cost of a sweater

We’re back in the office, it’s empty until Thursday, we’re prepping for Spring 16 and a new product ship-in. Early in Fall Winter 15 friend, colleague, client and I were discussing the cost of a really great sweater. Her thoughts were spend the money on a good dress, mine are kind of put it into a  sweater.

We’ve been wearing this sweater since the first cool nights in August. Now that it’s really cold out there it’s in almost constant rotation.  Paired it today with a flat sequin silver skirt, even though the party’s over we can all still wear our sparkle stuff, just be sure to dress it down. In lieu of skin or a heel pulled on some black leather over-the-knee boots, outfitted for the day.

When you factor in cost per wear of a really great piece with the ease of getting dressed and out the door when all you really might want to do is stay home and clean house, the cost of a really nice sweater is of absolute full benefit.

There’s a bit of a black eye in there, matches the sweater, dropped a weight on my face at the gym last week, no kidding. Oh, the perils of training.
