I’m back!  Thank you so much for sticking with me while I took a much needed blogging break.  Taking a break helped me not feel so pressured to post as many times per week.  This blog is for fun, and that many posts was just too stressful.  Thanks to feeling less pressure, there will be a few things that are going to change around here, and the biggest change is that Ways to Wear will be the only weekly feature.  Something Old, Something New will still be here, but every other week instead of weekly.  I highly doubt that I will be able to keep my opinion to myself, so I’ll review products in posts when I find ones that I really like.  

This sweater was another random thrift store find.  I look at pieces like this sweater as challenges.  It isn’t exactly my typical kind of sweater, and in fact took me a little while to figure out how to style it so that it didn’t look too preppy.  A little black did the trick to tone down the sweater and create a look that is actually my style.

One project I’ve been working on while taking a break from this blog is starting another blog.  My new blog is a photography blog, where I’m finally sharing some of the photographs I have taken over the years. If you would like to check it out it is http://srochellephoto.wordpress.com/.
Let me know what you think of how I styled my preppy sweater!
