What I Wore: Autumn Brights
Sweater: Halogen (plus option) (XL) | Skirt: c/o Talbots (14) | Tights: Commando | Boots: Jessica Simpson (on sale!) | Scarf: Hermès via MYHABIT (similar concept) | Bag: 13″ Tote c/o Dagne Dover
I'm a bit of a MYHABIT addict. I find the most amazing pieces at the most amazing prices. Not only that, when someone uses your referral link, they receive a $20 store credit and you do too! I collected store credit for a year and treated myself to a Hermès scarf on clearance. How else would I ever be able to afford an Hermès? And it's all my favorite colors too! When putting away the scarf in my closet, I saw the color of the skirt was in the scarf and had to pair the two.
This cashmere sweater from Halogen is a mega bargain. It's a quality weight, a classic style (straight, a tad longer than usual with slits on the sides to look cute untucked with slim pants or jeans), and reasonable price. Halogen cashmere sweaters can vary from year to year; I have bought some that are transparent and pill, and some that are thick, lofty, and soft. This year has been a good one for Halogen cashmere, it's tempting to get another one in a fun color.

Allie,
I’m curious about the sweater sizing. Do you think that Halogen sweater sizes run small? Their XL doesn’t look all that large to me. I noticed that you are wearing an XL. I take an XL in many mfgs’ sweaters, but I think this one would be too small for me. I will check out the plus choices.

I’m wearing it today untucked with skinny twill pants and there’s no way I’d be able to comfortably do the L. It’s a bit longer with slits on the sides, the L would be too form fitting. Also the slits on the Xl are an inch below my waistband, I’d fear a L would show a bit of my waist or at least the belt loops of pants. I think this is supposed to be a slim fit, but my opinion this cut looks better sizing up.
What referral code should we use for you? That link isn’t working for me.
For MYHABIT? Should just be the link: http://www.myhabit.com/ref=qd_mr_per_l?refcust=YFJCP6BTTTLKFAOKLGB2HOEUDU

Thanks Kim!
okay, i never thought i needed a yellow skirt, but after seeing you wear it in two super cute outfits, i might have to rethink that! you look great!
I think any unexpected accent color can work. I had an orange a-line a couple years ago that was just as versatile!
