GRACE YOURSELF: December 2016

Turtleneck Love

Saturday, December 17, 2016

It's been a while, because life got crazy hectic with finals season rolling in. I had so many papers and exams to do while going to work part time and serving at church. I was able to get some photoshoots in since the last time I posted on here, but I just haven't had the time to refine my photos and upload them onto the blog page. But now that all the school stress is over for a while, I should be able to continue posting for you guys!

Turtlenecks are a must during the Winter season. This particular turtleneck is unique in its shape, and I really liked that. Jane paired this turtleneck with a pair of black jeans that she distressed by herself. And of course, you can't forget the chelsea boots and booties in the Winter time.

The weather on this day was definitely on our side. There was enough light but not much sunlight, because it was kind of a cold day and it was perfect for a photoshoot. I was very pleased with the result of our photos.

I really thought Jane bought her jeans as is, but turns out she distressed them herself. I have experience distressing my jeans and I remember being very pleased with my results. I absolutely love the rips on the knees, it's totally in style and gives some character an outfit with dim colors.

I love the slits on the sides of the turtleneck sweater, and how the back is longer than the front. A shirt being too long in the front makes your legs look shorter, but a longer back covers your butt and you feel a little less self-conscious about your behind.
