{outfit} Winter White Sweater

In stark contrast to yesterday's post, I love this outfit!  I have been wanting to wear these Tabitha Simmons boots since I bought them in July and was waiting for the perfect occasion. It seemed like that would never happen, so I made the occasion and just wore them on a plain old regular day!

They retailed for $1900 and I paid $74 after being very patient! I had seen them at Roundabout a few times before I actually bought them. Sadly, even though they were discounted, they were still expensive. When they had a 60% off sale, I scooped them up (along with a Burberry dress and cashmere sweater)! I featured them back in 2011 when Net-a-Porter debuted their "Runway to Green" collection where a portion of the sales went to leading environmental organizations. It's always funny when I end up buying something I shared on my blog years before.

Sweater: Inis Crafts (Marshalls), Jeans: J Brand c/o Marshalls, Boots: Tabitha Simmons (Roundabout Resale), Ring c/o Kendra Scott, Necklace: House of Harlow (South Moon Under)

  5. WELP I am jealous of that deal!!! I can't imagine being able to pay that much for boots (or any clothing item!!) without a huge sale! You scored a killer sale. I have items that I am "waiting" for too, but I need to take your advice and just MAKE an occasion to wear them!

  9. Sometimes I feel like if I wait long enough I can eventually find everything I want secondhand. I have found a surprising number of things that I lusted after when they were retail a few years after the fact.

    Happy to finally see those fabulous booties, and I love your cozy sweater and jewels. You look fab, and your love of this look definitely shines through.
