Growing up I always hated turtle necks. I thought they were so weird looking and uncomfortable and I never wanted to wear the ones my mom bought for me. I avoided wearing them at all up until 2012. Then I found this plain black one at Joe Fresh for $9 and I thought I'd give it a try....and you know what? I actually like it, samIam.

That looks really good! I've always avoided turtlenecks too.
ReplyDeleteThe Green Eggs & Ham reference worked beautifully as it was just Dr. Seuss's birthday!

Deletei think turtlenecks can be SO CUTE when worn correctly. and you hit this look spot on. well done!
ReplyDeleteThat turtleneck looks very chic on you! I don't think I've worn one since I was a kid, but maybe it's worth checking out again!
ReplyDeletelook at you in that darling turtleneck! black is almost always the best way to go when it comes to turtlenecks anyway!
ReplyDeletetotally agree;)
DeleteI think you look cute! With some cropped black skinny pants you would look totally Audrey Hepburn-esq. I love that skirt though. You can never go wrong with pockets! :D

I definitely found myself in the same situation recently. Hated them growing up, felt strangled, but then found a simple black one that I really like. Love yours with the glasses and red lips.
ReplyDeletetotally! ha. and thank you:)
DeleteEveryone I know hates turtle necks and I just don't get it. There is nothing more elegant and stylish than a chic black turtle neck. It's my winter staple with a pair of black cigarette pants (very Audrey Hepburn).
ReplyDeletehaha the conversion just hasn't happened yet...took me long enough!
DeleteI love turtle-necks, you can see me wearing them all winter and in many colours. I love to wear them under dresses!
ReplyDeleteGirls that glitter love the dark

such a good layering look! I gotta get some more colours!
DeleteI love the specks! And I like when turtlenecks are worn with hair up... looks very sophisticated! :)

thanks! I agree- I prefer hair up for sure.
DeleteI think you look cute in the black turtleneck. I remember wearing them when I was little, but haven't worn one since then.
