I was TRULY blessed this past Christmas. I got lots of good gifts, most of them being clothes (which I’m more than fine with), and they all went well together! What a Christmas miracle!
I have to admit, the day I wore this outfit, I felt cool. I couldn’t help it! Confidence shines through, my friends. I was confident, I felt crisp and clean, and basically I ran the world on this day.
I got the shoes from my brother, I got the cardigan from my mother, and I got those really cool wooden sunglasses from my friend Justin Livingston in NYC. By “my friend” I mean that I won them by participating in a giveaway on Scout Sixteen, a fashion blog that I follow. I was driving 7 hours on my way to Florida for Christmas and I received an email saying “you’ve won the giveaway! Congrats!” From there I freaked out and immediately called Tyler. I never win anything. I was dedicated to winning these sunglasses and it paid off! Yay for me! Anyways, I consider Justin Livingston, the owner of Scout Sixteen, a friend because A) He gave me sunglasses. I mean, none of my other friends have done that! 2) I’m a little to obsessed with his Instagram and website, and C) A man can dream, can’t he?!
The sunglasses are from Weekend Eyewear and I had seen them on Pinterest ages ago and thought “those are cool!” Never really thought I’d own a pair cause ya know how Pinterest is; you see things you like, you pin them, and then you forget about them. Let this be a lesson to all of you: you will never look as good as me in these sunglasses.

Anyways, back to the rest of the outfit. The bow tie, I had already owned, thanks to Tyler, and it too went perfectly with this cardigan! It MUST have been a God thing, no? I was happy to pair them and wear them. This outfit really came together. Oh yeah, and I had gotten my hair cut a few days prior. I know you love that side part.

Love how you styled them
