Emerald and Dots

Every year around December this green cardigan becomes my new best friend.  Paired with polka dots and some pretty jewels and I'm golden.


Cardigan - F21 (old, similar) / Shirt and Necklace (similar) - JCrew Factory / Jeans - Gap / Boots - Bandolino (old, similar) / Watch and Bracelet - Michael Kors / Bracelet - Baublebar



Looking at this post is making me realize how much my style has evolved over the past couple of years.  I never used to wear button downs, and if I added a cardigan to an outfit it was strictly for warmth purposes.  I threw on an outfit the other day when all of my clothes were dirty and was instantly taken back to 2008 Kristina, who wore a lot of v-neck tee shirts with camis and rarely sported any jewelry.  If only that girl could see me now, she'd be so proud!

    Green looks great with your hair color! I'm sure you get that comment a lot, though

    Emerald looks so great on you, Kristina! And I'm sure I've said this before, but I'm constantly jealous of your roof. I wish my apartment had something similar!

    This outfit reminds me that I have a cardigan similar to this and never wear. Emerald looks stunning on you!

    2008 Kristina sounds eerily similar to 2008 Elizabeth! My style definitely evolved once I went to college and started in the real world. Love this look :)

    Too funny I wore an almost identical emerald cardigan today! Great minds think alike!

    This is the perfect color and cardigan before the holidays. I love how you paired it with the polka dot shirt and statement necklace.

    Love this sweet holiday look! I totally bring my green cardigan out twice as much this time of year as well... though I tend to go a little too far and pair it was red for a full-on Christmassy look :P
