Sweater Season Again – Autumn Colors

Posted by: admin on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

The Coolest Woman on the planet definitely wears sweaters. I can’t think of a warmer addition to a wardrobe anywhere than sweaters and cardigans.

Recently, while visiting my daughter, I felt a chill. I hadn’t prepared for cold weather when packed for the trip two weeks earlier. Mid-September, even in Denver, usually means warm weather and shirt sleeves. Rarely does it snow that time of year in the foothills. We weren’t planning a trip to the mountains, but suddenly snow flakes were falling.

She tossed me a sweater with an interesting shape, and I looked at it, but didn’t think I could wear it. I put it on anyway. The back of the sweater covered my back with sleeves to the mid arm length. The front had long woven tails that tied, wrapped, or hung down the front. As uncomfortable as the sweater looked, it felt amazingly comfy and warm. I wiggled around in it until I felt comfortable and realized I felt as if I’d been wrapped up snug in a cocoon.

The next morning when clouds still hovered over Colorado skies, I grabbed her sweater wrap again, to wear over my skirt and heals for church. It worked perfect.

Monday morning when I had a meeting at the high-rise downtown, I added it as a topper to my black slacks and summer blouse. I wore it off and on all week, disappointed on Friday morning when I headed home and she said, “Mom, you can’t take my sweater.” We laughed. I’d finally found an article of clothing, she owned, that I really and truly wanted.

I started my search online when I got home, fully expecting to have to make the sweater, to get one in my size and color choice. But then, finally I found one. Not just one, but a few choices in a variety of styles, colors and fabrics.

Sitting here at my desk wrapped in the cozy comfort of a micro-knit wrap in my favorite purple passion color over black leggings and a black tank, I feel comfy and warm, even with cloudy skies and the threat of snow outside. It feels good to be the coolest woman on the planet dressed in high style and fashion, just over the top edge of the hill, coming of age and enjoying the most magnificent view of my life.

Pick one, order it and join me in the cozy comfort of sweater season in one of Autumn’s most brilliant hues. You’ll enjoy the opportunity to be cozy and warm in high style fashion too.
