While It's Still Sweater Weather (Except in Florida)

I love sweaters because they're easy to dress up or down and they're so comfortable; it's like wearing your pajamas out in public! Unfortunately, sweater weather doesn't last long where I live in Florida, but I'll take what I can get. Sweaters are also a bit of an investment — most people don't own that many, so the ones they do have are pretty special. I particularly love throwback varsity sweaters and how timeless they are, but they have to be done just right. That's why I like Hillflint. This is how a collegiate sweater is supposed to look!

Hillflint's sweaters come in a variety of colleges, including the Ivy League schools (hey, Harvard!). I also like that you can choose from a few designs depending on whether you want your school's name emblazoned on your chest or you just want to sport an initial as a subtle nod to your alma mater.

As is often the case, they don't have my school yet (c'mon, Bulls!), so I opted for another institution that's close to my heart — the United States Military Academy. My dad served in the Army and one of his favorite places in the world was West Point. Every year, I root for the Black Knights in the Army-Navy game in memory of my dad, who faithfully watched the game with immense pride. All those memories make me love this sweater even more!
