Picture this: You’re taking a break from your big city journalist job to spend the holidays in your small, snowy hometown, helping out your family-owned business — let’s say a cute bed and breakfast. You’re fresh off a breakup with someone who didn’t appreciate you, and you’re expecting to just lie low for the next week… until a handsome face shows up with a need for a room and a heart filled with love to give.
This is the start of your very own holiday movie. Even if your holiday plans are drastically different from what we described above, it can still be fun to pretend. While you might not have a family bed and breakfast to return to, you can still dress the part of chic lead in a romantic holiday movie with the help of the 21 chunky sweaters below!
