If I saw this sweater on anyone else, I'd say, "Oh, what a great cozy sweater!" However, when I put it on myself, it quickly turned from cozy to itchy! I don't know what it is with me and picky materials, but my skin is just so sensitive. Now I remember why I dislike cold weather clothes so much. It's incredibly difficult for me to find a sweater that doesn't pick at my skin!
Sweater: American Eagle (Sister's)
Jeans: Eddie Bauer ($10, I think)
Boots: Shoedazzle (Gift)
Teal Ring: Maurices ($2.99)
Gold Glass Ring: Glow Salon ($5)
You know what's weird about this sweater, though? The longer I wear it, the less itchy it becomes. I thought it would have had the opposite effect on me, but nope. Maybe it's growing on me. =)
Oh, and on a totally unrelated note, the runner didn't show up today. And here I was all ready to embrace my inner blogger and proudly primp and preen in front of the camera without worrying about what he might think. ;)
I'm linking up today with the following lovely ladies:
Go check them out and see the other ladies who are flaunting their style! =)

You look great!!! I love the sweater, and those BOOTS!! & I just adore that teal ring :D I love teal.
Great post doll!
I hate itchy sweaters! They are the worst. This sweater is absolutely adorable! Red is such a great color on you :) Glad the runner didn't show up for your photo shoot, lol! Heather
Super cute sweater. If it's wool washing it in Eucalan might help make it less itchy.
Glad the runner didn't show up so we can see your outfits photos in this lovely location. Your sweater is cute, very cozy and great color! Looks fabulous wit jeans and boots

Love the sweater, but I hate the itchies...the exact reason I don't usually wear sweaters that aren't cardi's. But, I do love seasonal vibe you are styling with that red...
I have the same problem with itchy sweaters. I feel trapped when I wear one. :)

I have a really hard time with wool. It's just too darned itchy. Even if I wear something in between me and the sweater.
I really love this sweater on you. The color and the style are great. Those boots are yum.
xo,

Pretty girrrrrl! You look so cute! Sorry you're itchy... Beauty is a pain, sometimes!
It's a shame it is itchy because it is super cute! I call that print "chalet" and I'm looking for the perfect chalet sweater right now.
Hope you'll link up with What I Wore Wednesday: http://transatlanticblonde.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-i-wore-wednesday_30.html

That's a bummer your sweater is itchy, because it's so cute! Maybe you'll wear the itch out of it :)
I hate itchy sweaters. They are the worst. This sweater looks adorable on you though! I so wish I could pull off my hair being that short! - Dreama

It's an adorable sweater! But I really HATE wearing sweaters exactly for the itchiness. I also hate having to "break them in" so they're less itchy!

certain sweaters just have that itchy fiber. i don't think it gets less itchy...i think we eventually get numb, or forget about it...until we remember it's itchy again! great holiday sweater!

What's the next line? Help write the story!
I have a very similar sweater you'll see in an outfit post next post! And I bet the sweater is wool or something wool blended which makes it itchy...I hate anything that itches...ugh!
Ha! Maybe your skin was just testing you...trying to see if you'd tough it out or give in :)
I love the sweater/boots combo! Perfect for any cold weather day!
We dare you to behold such beauty and grace.

I've also noticed that the more I wash and wear itchy sweaters the more wearable they become. Loving red on you!
cute boots! i always have to wear a cami under my sweaters - they all seem to make me itch. :)
That's such a cute sweater. I brought a sweater for costco but since it itched me I returned it.
I LOVE those riding boots Tiffany! Such a rich brown color and goes so well with the colorful red sweater. So chic and awesome my dear!
I really dont like itchy sweaters, but you know what - I have this blazer it was itchy before and i think now its not, weird eh?
You look beautiful in this vibrant red color :)

I too suffer the sweater itch. I can't wear acrylic, but love some wool. But if I get too hot anything drives me nuts. Makes sweater hunting so hard.
At least the sweater is cute. I'm sure you've tried layering, but camis and tissue tees really help in the itch department.
