What NYC Recessionista Wears: Cable knit knee socks

Yesterday, when I headed to the Ms. Milholland pop-up shop I told you about in my last post, I wanted to look cute and festive for the holidays of course 🙂


Earrings c/o New York & Company (similar) / Old Navy plaid shirt / J. Crew Tippi sweater / wishbone bracelet c/o Julep / bracelet c/o Ann Taylor spring 2013 / Anthropologie bracelet (similar) / Gap bracelet (similar) / Timex watch / LOFT skirt / Kate Spade New York tights (similar) / Urban Outfitters socks (similar) / J. Crew boots (similar)

This shirt is quickly becoming one of my new favorites!

And I love that, no matter which bracelets I mix together, a stack of bling on your arm just always works …

This is the first time I’ve layered cable knit socks under my boots, and I think I’ll definitely be doing this more often — it’s a great way to add some casual & cozy texture to an outfit.
