Happy Thursday, ladies! I'm taking a break from the holiday sparkle and showing you how to wear neutrals during the holiday season. Don't get me wrong, I love the color and glitter of a glamorous holiday outfit; but on a cold, rainy day in Athens, I decided to feature a classic outfit that will work all winter long.
Today, I'm showing you how to wear neutrals during the holiday season
I'm featuring a simple pencil skirt from Ann Taylor dressed up with a great wool coat
Plus, two alternative stylings, shoppable via text widgets

Today, I'm featuring a pencil skirt from Ann Taylor. Simple enough, but it really shines with a pair of boots. You could go suede or leather, here---both would work great.
I've chosen to go matchy-matchy and stick with black to complement not only the skirt but also this classic turtleneck.
I've broken up the monochromatic outfit with this striking wool coat (old, similar here). It's perfect for cold weather months and will elevate any winter outfit, bringing a touch of elegance and class.

Lovely post. Great selections.
Would you please share the source for the beautiful gold bag in the last photo?
I’ve been enjoying your posts for 3 years. I am one of the many who unfortunately cannot wear wool including cashmere.
It would be appreciated if you could post a comparable look in a different fabric..
Thank you and enjoy the holidays with your family
Now that is Parisienne chic 🥂 Timeless, ageless, chic. You look stunning in that, Beth. We tend to want boundless, walk-in closets, where as across the pond, in general, it’s a well curated closet of timeless, well made items. Not saying, of course, that we can’t be modern, fresh and have fun. We are women, after all!
Would you mind sharing what brand your sunglasses are? They are beautiful on you.
Beautiful
Your neutrals look so sophisticated. Very nice, and I love both boards too; especially the red shoes. But alas, I’m not a “bow on shoes” person, so I’m trying to resist, although they are so cute.!
I noticed someone else commented about not being able to wear wool/cashmere and would like to see alternatives. Me too! I may have commented on that before. Seems many bloggers showcase cashmere. It’s beautiful and looks so chic, but so disheartening not to be able to wear it.
LOVE this outfit. So elegant and chic, looks much more expensive than it probably is too. That’s the beauty of an outfit like this I think – you can go pricey, or you can find inexpensive items when it is the classic basics like this. Especially when you calculate cost per wear.
Very classy. I notice that the other comments are from last year. Just goes to illustrate what “timeless style” really means!!
