Chunky Cardigan Lady...It's the New Cat Lady

Ugh. I am starting to freak out a bit over my lack of a job in a few months. I am turning into a very depressive person who lives in chunky cardigans. It’s a sorry state to be in, albeit a comfortable one. And since the recent burst of spring weather in New Haven has turned into windy, rain, and rather chilly days as we transition into April, chunky cardigans and tights just seem pretty appropriate.


dress: Jason Wu for Target / cardigan: H&M / necklace: ModCloth / tights: We Love Colors / boots: I honestly can’t remember at this point, maybe I should go back through my blog archives…

I wanted that dress, but I was in a small town when the collection wen on sale, and the local Target didn't stock it.

I'll be sending you good job vibes. I know you'll find something, but I understand how stressful it can be.

Well if it makes you feel any better...you look super cute in your chunky cardigan! I am loving the muted color of the cardi with the bold blue!

Cheer up Courtney. NO matter what you've done so much, accomplished so much, and have been to so many places. Don't let this get you down. You will get something!! Either way cozy cardigans are definitely the way to go with this weather....and some soup?

I totes had to bust out a few of my chunky knits over the weekend because it was ballz cold and I was feeling kinda sicky. Then today, I woke up to 80F of sticky ick.
I LOVE that dress and glad you got it for yourself!
