Christmas In New York
It's become a bit of a tradition for my family to go into NYC on Christmas Day. We'll usually stop by to see the tree and sometimes grab dinner. This year we ended up having a large feast at home but we still went and saw the tree for about an hour.
While I love the holidays I can be a bit of a grinch when it comes to seeing the tree. As you can imagine it gets very, very crowded and the whole experience is made even worse by the low temperatures. Thankfully this year it wasn't all that cold so my grinch-ness was at a lower level than usual. I didn't even have to wear a proper coat!
My wardrobe is pretty monochromatic but I brought in a bit of the holiday spirit with this khaki green skort I bought this summer. I topped the look off with my favorite jacket of the moment. When I bought a year or two ago I assumed it would be a seasonal trendy item but it's got a lot of consistent wear! I initially bought it because it reminded me of a Mother jacket I had been lusting over. While Urban Outfitters hasn't brought back this jacket, Mother did bring back their original sherpa bomber jacket! It's funny how quick some trend cycles are becoming.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
