A Lily Love Affair: Winters First Snow

Winters First Snow







Target Fair Isle Sweater (now sold out ~ similar styles below)
Ann Taylor Red Pants (sold out ~ I also LOVE these J.Crew Red Pants)
Banana Republic Buffalo Check Top || Tory Burch Cobalt Robinson Tote || Ann Taylor Heels (temporarily sold out) 

I have such an emotional conflict with snow. 

The first snowfall is always so romantic and magical; a moment I anticipate all winter.  I love seeing everything surrounded by bright, soft powder before anything else in the world has touched it.  It really is so angelic.  Now, don't ask me how I feel about it days later ... we'll just stay in this positive moment, right? :) 

Today, I am keeping with my promise to not purchase anything new after the new year and instead remix some of my favorite pieces that already exist in my closet.  I love the bright reds and cobalt blues against the white backdrop.  All of these pieces are ones I have worn 100 times over in the last year or so, but together they feel fresh and chic.  Is there anything better than a fair isles sweater?  Not for me!  While this Target option is sold out online, I have included other great options below all under $100!  

I hope you're all having a great week!  Much love to all of you!  

XOXO, 
Anna

  22. The first snowfall of the season is my favorite also! It is usually so magical and picturesque. I never would have thought to put these patterns together, but it works so well. This is a great outfit!
