Feelin’ Festive

     Quite honestly, no.  I wasn’t feeling festive when I wore this.  Not that I’m anti-Christmas or anti-festive. That just wasn’t necessarily what I was aiming for.  I wore it because I love this particular plaid flannel shirt, and I thought it looked good under the chunky cable knit sweater.  And as usual, there must be neck bling. Looking in the mirror in the morning I didn’t think, “Hmm…festive and Christmasy.”  But I guess that’s one of the hazards of wearing anything red this time of year, especially when it’s paired with sparkly, shiny things; it immediately reads “festive”.
     Now that the turkey is gone and we’re on the downhill side towards Christmas, I’m all for festive. And no, just because I teach in an elementary school that DOES NOT mean I will be breaking out the ugly Christmas sweaters and applique sweatshirts.  Needless to say, not my thing.  But I can’t promise you the Grinch won’t be making an appearance or two.

You may not have felt festive but you look great! I love the layering with the plaid, sweater and necklace! I need more plaid; love the print of this red one. Thanks for linking up again Debbie!

I like this look. Especially the white. Funny since I don’t like to wear white but my sister twin looks good in it. Maybe I should give it another chance. Also it might be because you have the red popping out at the collar.

I like the lighting in these photos.

Stopping by from Love it Link up! I love this look on you. And I’m glad you’re not going to be donning the ugly sweaters for the next three weeks. My Aunt was a teacher and has one for every day of the month! 🙂

I’ll wear the Ugly Christmas Sweaters for you! Seriously, there is one covered in candy canes right beside me as I type. Does it help that I’m NOT a teacher? :o)
