Sometimes you’ve gotta just go with the black turtleneck

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Random Thoughts + Ramblings

You know, I could wear a black turtleneck every day of the winter and be quite content.  I have never looked at myself in a picture and wondered what I was thinking when I’m wearing a black turtleneck in the snapshot.  It’s timeless.  It’s classic.  It’s flattering.  It may be boring, but it’s a sure […]
