The Art of Fashion: Sweater Weather is Better Weather


The Art of Fashion: Sweater Weather is Better Weather

Happy New Year Guys!
So, as you know it’s a new year filled with new goals, new concepts, and even better NEW POSTS! I’ve slaved over a hot keyboard, notebook, and camera to come up with some fresh new blog posts that should hopefully last me the next few months, so Grad School won’t get in the way of my blogging frequency.

     But anyways, it’s more than good to be back, it’s great, and we’re back to kick off the new year with a dope new post that we’ve been working on for the last few months now here at the Artistry Corner. I deemed this post, Sweater Weather is Better Weather, in honor of my collection of oversized sweaters for this winter season. I believe my obsession started a little over three years ago when for whatever reason I became overly infatuated with oversized-Cosby styled sweaters. I can’t tell you how or why this obsession originated, but I know after picking up my first sweater spring quarter of my freshman year in a small vintage shop in Riverside, CA, I was hooked. And from there the rest is history!

    So over the last few months I came up with a concept that involved showcasing my collection for Le Blog. I grabbed my brother, we pulled all my sweaters, created outfits for each, took pictures, and an awesomely dope post was born. So here for the first time ever via the internet and technological advances, I give you the Sweater Weather is Better Weather Winter 2014 Collection! Presented by the Poetess Dij & the Artistry Corner, sponsors include various thrift shops and Goodwill *LOL*
