Welcome back to Watcha’ Wearin’ January, a blog tour all about inspiring you to get your sewjo back after the holidays. Our host, Sewing by Ti has bloggers lined up for almost everyday this month to help you along.
January is cold here in Colorado and I hate to be cold in general, so I’ve been wearin’ LAYERS.
I’ve been wearing my Melissa Cardigan from Zierstoff Patterns a lot. It’s the perfect fit for me and the collar gives me just a little extra coverage on the back of my neck.
Melissa Cardigan paired with a tee and skinny pants.
Melissa Cardigan paired with my Tonic Tee hack and Liana Jeans.
I’ve worn my new Paro Cardigan from Itch to Stitch four times since I made it a couple weeks ago.
Paro cardigan paired with rtw sweater and my Birkin Flares. This is not my favorite outfit honestly; the flare of the cardigan and the flare of the jeans are just too much.

Much better with skinny jeans.
Last Sunday, I wore my Capitol Hill dress from Straight Stitch Designs, tights and boots for church. Once we got home I layered on these hand knit slipper socks that I got in Kyrgyzstan years ago and really never worn. I’ve been afraid to mess them up by wearing them, but collecting dust on the shelf is no good either.
Yeah, we still have our Christmas tree. It’s coming down this week.
Typically I just pile on the layers with little care about making an outfit, but the pink flowers on the slipper socks go nicely with the dress so I’m counting this a combo that works.

These are beautiful, comfortable makes and great to wear when the temperatures are dropping down. Two or three layers are the best option especially when you’ve got to work and running around.

I keep our house cold, so I usually look all a mish mash of colors and styles. Trying to look a little more like I care.

That dress is GORGEOUS. The color plus the pattern were just made for each other. Its so hard to look “nice” when you’re cold. Sometimes 15 layers of fleece is really the answer.
