I am a total Anglophile, and I love Boden. So when I saw this sweater printed with tiny Queen’s Guard soldiers, I knew I had to have it.

I was excited to be able to wear it at Thanksgiving and Christmas — when we went to places that are legitimately cold — but it’s the kind of sweater that will work in the temperatures that pass for “cold” here in SoCal, too.

These photos were taken in Michigan, which means I got to borrow my mom’s bag to go with the outfit, so that’s fun. I also was trying out some new eyeliner and a new lipstick, both of which I liked but don’t really translate well in the photos. I guess I’m going to have to work on that!
