Tissue Please!

Besides my basic black, white and grey tees that are a staple in my wardrobe, there's one more item that is a constant. A turtleneck. And not just any turtleneck: the tissue turtleneck. I love that it's lightweight and fits perfectly over a thin cami. It tucks perfectly into skirts - no bunching!

Sadly, right before I left for India, I had to retire my only one due to a stubborn stain. So into the trash it went. Totally forgot that I did this because I went crazy looking for it only realizing what I had done. It was time to re-stock. Online I went to J.Crew Factory, where I found it (at the time) at about $15. Of course I couldn't buy just one item (it was the Black Friday sale!). Into the shopping basket went this fabulous army green skirt. I couldn't help myself. I've seen this style so many times over that I had to jump on the bandwagon. I mean, it cinches at the waist and has pockets. Need I say more? I also threw this pair of tights into the shopping cart, as well. Overall, the outfit only put me out at $56! You too can nab this outfit for just about the same price (+$10) - check the deets below and you can thank me later ;)
