The most miserable family experience I've ever had, had nothing to do with people. Rather, I was freezing cold. We were driving somewhere as a family and I hadn't listened to my mother and so I didn't wear my coat (it didn't match my holiday dress) so I sat shivering in the car ride down to visit the family getting colder and colder. This beaded black cashmere sweater could have saved me. The beading dressed up the basic black sweater making it dressy enough to match holiday wear The cashmere keeps me warm enough to not freeze in silence as I refused to admit I was wrong.
