Bringing a Little Charleston Home 😎

One of the fun parts of traveling is occasionally finding something that earns a place in the regular rotation once you get home.

Today I’m wearing a couple of things I picked up in Charleston last weekend from Ben Silver — this new quarter-zip and the socks. The sweater felt perfect for this time of year.

Ben Silver is a store I bumped into while wandering the streets. But coincidently our sartorial guru

had mentioned his waiting for the new Ben Silver catalog and it dawned on me, that I remember him mentioning Ben silver in other posts several months earlier, so maybe it wasn't a coincidence and just subliminal peer pressure that brought me to the store! 😜. Either way I am happy I went and picked up a couple of items that I know I will love and get many years of use out of.

It is cool enough in the morning now that I want a layer, but we are still in that in-between season where I do not need anything too heavy.

So today I paired it with tan trousers, a white shirt, and brown suede shoes, and let the coral color do most of the work. Then there are the socks. A little pattern, a little texture, and just enough personality without shouting for attention.

Those are often my favorite details anyway.

I enjoy bringing something home from a trip that reminds me of where I found it, but more importantly, I like when it actually fits into the life and wardrobe I already have. Otherwise it is just a souvenir.

And with fall starting to settle in, I am very happy to have another sweater joining the rotation.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!! 😎
