In the past, I've always hated the strangling feeling of turtlenecks. Yeah, they keep your neck warm, but in reality, after a long day of sitting at school or home, a turtleneck can feel like it's wringing your neck. However, I absolutely adored this Forever 21 poncho I saw on Caitlin from Southern Curls and Pearls, and fell in love with turtlenecks all over again.
This week I've been home for Thanksgiving, and of course I went shopping - but what did I buy? I walked out of the mall with 2 turtlenecks in hand and another two on their way to my school. I'm absolutely in love with them all! I didn't pick up the same one as Caitlin because I couldn't find it in my size when I wanted to order it, but this Old Navy one is super similar (plus I just love anything Old Navy does). Check out my turtleneck purchases below:
I also found this incredible gray turtleneck sweater with open sides from.... GAP KIDS! Seriously this sweater is beyond fabulous and so unique. Originally it was for my sister, but she didn't like the open sides of the sweater, and it fit me, so of course I had to snag it. I can't find a link since the item was no longer being sold in stores (thank you to whoever returned it to my local mall), but an OOTD and blog post on that sweater will be coming soon.
Are you also loving the turtleneck trend? How would you style turtlenecks for the holiday season?
I love the style of turtlenecks, but my neck doesn't. I wish the fabric didn't irritate my skin!

I find that it depends on the sweater! I always look for really soft ones and before I buy anything at Forever 21 or less expensive stores, I try to check the fabric content! Cotton is the best for being non-itchy and soft. And I adore the look of layering with multiple shirts, that way your neck is safe from itchy turtleneck sweaters!
