Now that all, or at least most of my fall purchases have been made, I can reflect on the goods I bought. I think my hands down favorite new item is the Navajo sweater I was jonesing for. After seeing all the amazing styles from
Opening Ceremony's collaboration with the old school American brand,
Pendleton (see below), I was sold. These cool, casual sweaters are as classic as they are cozy.
Some amazing styling from Teen Vogue grunge inspired spread, "Finding Nirvana".

(Teen Vogue, November 2009)I absolutely love
this loud sweater jacket from Opening Ceremony.

In case you can't afford the $500 price tag of the sweater above,
this JCPenny, American Living, Navajo cardigan is much more affordable. Ignore the mom styling, it had a much more flattering photo in the September Issue of
Lucky Magazine. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUeh9zwMMLfp_4P5ycDpPpJRpig-NVFS5SWtieUxe_123GjOCE1au4mFDhBybIpHHoJew9-RDjajSJi-Qg-fct7kJWvzdzwrlVXHrh0tg97WpZXABnAEuzzHTtcZHM92YNR-eENNkRBM8/s400/jcp.jpg)
My favorite cozy buy of the season, a vintage Pendleton from ebay for $60!
