Cutest Sweater EVER

This year I had made up my mind to purchase one of those 'UGLY' sweaters that all of the department stores are now selling,

 but the more I looked, the more I decided that I didn't want an UGLY sweater,

although many gals have fun wearing them and they do bring on a burst of giggles at Christmas parties.

 Most of them were too bulky or too poorly made, too crude a message,... any of you who have shopped for an UGLY sweater know what I'm talking about.

BUT

when I ran across THIS sweater at Talbots, although being rather pricey, it is of a lighter gauge knit, well made, and I mean... who doesn't love the old woody cars with trees up top being hauled to a family's home for the Holiday Season.

I fell in love with it!

 I chose to wear a red and black checked blouse underneath and also one of the bling necklaces from last year's Holiday Season wardrobe, a pair of my black ponte pants and my hat and went out to lunch with my husband today.

We had been on a shopping mission but came away empty handed and just decided that lunch Out sounded good.

I think this would look perfect with just about any plaid blouse underneath.

Loving my woody sweater!
