Every year around this time I love to find the sweater (or two) that I know I’ll reach for until March. I’ve been doing this for the last few F/W seasons and the result is a collection of knits I’m still excited to pull out year after year. It’s no secret I love Toteme. Founded by one of the original Scandi cool girls Elin Kling. I remember meeting her for the first time 8+ years ago during NYFW at a Ralph Lauren show and completely embarrassing myself as I stumbled over greet her and tripped just at her feet. Not my coolest moment! Back then I read her blog “Style By Kling” religiously and she was one of the main reasons why I started THE GIRL LOOK BOOK. Anyway…it’s no surprise that her line Toteme is killing it and season after season she continues to set trends and reinvent the classics in this effortlessly cool yet chic and sophisticated way. Who wouldn’t want to be all that?! My favorite place to shop Toteme (and Khaite) is MYTHERESA. Not only do they have the best assortment, they also have the best pricing (significantly less than US sites), and their complimentary expedited shipping is an unexpected luxury.
This alpaca knit feels like you’re wrapped in a teddy bear. It is incredibly soft and the richest shade of brown. I love it styled casually but it also looks great with a black slip skirt and a kitten heeled sandal. I hemmed and hawed over this striped one all last year and finally went for it last month. I love that its a modern twist on a classic striped sweater - the wide sleeves, side slits, and overall roomy fit - I know I’ll have it for years. Both sweater styles run on the bigger size so I recommend sizing down. Sharing a few other pieces i’ve been eyeing below in a MYTHERESA edit…
