With fall just around the corner and the weather starting to cool off, it's time to break out the sweaters and this is my favorite time of the year.
Now I don't know about you, but I absolutely adore big, wonderful, comfy sweaters. There is just something so wonderful about the comfortability of a sweater. It's like walking around in a warm hug.
But seriously I am a sucker for a good sweater and once fall comes around my wardrobe becomes mostly sweaters. I am always looking for a good sweater and will always buy a sweater before I will buy something else and that is okay. A great example of this was over summer I was in Ireland and went into this knit sweater/blanket store and came out with a hand-knit sweater and blanket and it going to be my new favorite sweater this year.
Now I don't know about you, but I think sweaters are the best thing and I will gladly spend money on sweaters over something else.
Yes, this may sound like a crazy thing, but there is just something so homely about sweaters that all I want to do is create my closet with sweaters. There is never a time where I will apologize for having more sweaters than money because there are just so many reasons to have a sweater or multiple sweaters in your closet.
Also, there are so many way that you can wear a sweater, you can dress it up or dress it down.
You can roll the sleeves, wear them with jeans or leggings, you can wear them over a shirt to act more like a jacket or you can just wear the sweater by itself. There are endless styles and endless possibilities for wearing sweaters, so they are great pieces to have.
No matter how many sweaters I have, I continue to buy more. My love of sweaters is comparable to my love of books, especially because they just go together so well! There's nothing like sitting at home on a nice fall day with a good book, a cup of tea and a comfy sweater.
Overall, sweaters are the ultimate comfort clothing item and that alone should be the best reason to want to have more sweaters than money in your bank account, but if you need even more of a reason to spend money on sweaters, there are so many cute and fashionable sweaters that are out there and if you do a good search you can actually get them for a pretty reasonable price.
So in the end, I am proud to say that I have more sweaters in my closet than money in my bank account and this is something that I am so not ashamed of and you shouldn't be either. So if you have people in your life who give you a hard time about living in sweaters or having way more than you should, don't even worry about it. I mean it isn't called sweater weather just because it can be.
