However my awesome sweater coat is one piece that I know will fit me now, in a few weeks, and in a few months. Meaning I may love it most of all. Now while I don't own this particular sweater coat by Perfectly Imperfect that I spotted at cool Seattle boutique Olivine Atelier, I've definitely got my eye on it.
If you haven't yet joined the ranks of the sweater coat evangelists or long cardigan devotees, I just can't rave about these staple pieces enough. They work over a plain white tee and jeans (not mom jeans) when you're just running to the store or picking up the kid , or you can dress them up with a chunky necklace and some dark skinny pants. Add in a belt to cinch it at the waist and some cute flats, and you've got my standard outfit for a volunteer meeting or a casual dinner out.
This one may seem a bit of a splurge piece, although frankly, my own was similarly priced and didn't even come in this soft, yummy, organic cotton. If you're calculating cost per wear--which is what all those fashion-y budget experts tell you to do--then I've more than worn the pricetag in only one season. And it's got plenty more left to serve me well.
With bump and, soon, without. -Kristen
