Happy National Sweater Day!

Hello everyone! Did you know that today was National Sweater Day in Canada?

Every year, WWF-Canada call on Canadians to put on a fun sweater and turn down the thermostats by two degrees Celsius on February 6 to support energy conservation and action on climate change. People can also contribute donations, which show up as "stitches" on the fun sweater posted on the WWF-Canada dedicated website.

Lacking a fun sweater, I celebrated by wearing a grey Equipment cashmere sweater, my latest score in the hunt for cheap-yet-lasting cashmere. Not one, but two debacles with Joe Fresh's cashmere have made me push the envelope a bit -- on the path traced by Garance Doré, no less, who indicated that Equipment could be her sweater dealer.

One wash and not too many wears later, the jury is still out on this one. I will keep you posted.
