I’ve always loved the tweed jacket and chunky sweater combo. However, I’ve never owned a jacket large enough to accommodate a thick sweater without preventing me from lifting my arms. So, you can imagine how excited I was to find a sleeveless ribbed chunky turtleneck sweater! This sweater fit perfectly under the jacket, and wasn’t bulky at all, giving the illusion of that cozy sweater and blazer look but without overheating.
I also love this double-breasted blazer from J.Crew. The golden color is perfect for the fall and winter months, and the classic cut and herringbone pattern remind me of classic American style a la Ralph Lauren. I almost wore my riding boots with this outfit to really go for the equestrian look, but I decided on these suede boots instead.
This is one of those outfits that will never go out of style and can be worn year after year. I truly believe that it’s important to collect some classic pieces that can be worn for years and will also hold up. I can tell that this J.Crew blazer will. And – bonus: it’s on sale!
