Cool air and cozy sweaters—who else is ready for fall?! Today I’m excited to share a special collaboration with Aran Sweaters Direct, an Irish company that specializes in high-quality knitwear.
Fall is my absolute favorite time of year, so I was totally on board when Aran Sweaters Direct reached out about styling one of their cozy pieces. In terms of material, all of their sweaters are made from 100% pure merino wool. In case you didn’t know, this material is derived from the merino sheep, which is known and bred for its luxurious wool. Merino wool has natural insulating properties that keep you warm in winter and cool in the summer, meaning it’s hard to overheat while wearing it. Case in point: it wasn’t hot but it certainly wasn’t chilly on the particular July morning when we shot these photos in the desert, yet I was still comfortable in my poncho. 
Not only is the fit perfectly oversized (my favorite!), but I can honestly say this is one of the most high-quality sweaters I own. The price point is very reasonable, too—this poncho is less than $120, which is definitely hard to come by for a handmade piece. I also want to mention Aran Sweaters is offering a special discount code for my readers and you can receive 15% off your purchase with code ‘meagansmoda‘. I have my eye on this cable knit turtleneck and this classic cape in the most gorgeous charcoal gray.
Sweaters, boots, pumpkin spice lattes…what makes you feel ready for fall? As always, thank you so much for reading!
