{J. Crew Lace Applique Sweater + T-Strap Mary Janes (old), Tommy Hilfiger Trumpet Skirt, Banana Republic Earrings}

All dressed up, and no place to go…

That was exactly my predicament earlier this week. I was working from home with plans to step out for lunch to take some quick outfit photos. Unfortunately, I was stuck inside all day due to the rain. Never one to waste a cute outfit, I decided to improvise by taking photos inside and dragging my husband out to dinner that night making myself a nice big mug of hot cocoa.

{Guess Pale Pink Coat, Gap Rainbow Stripe Dress (old, but also love this one and this one), J. Crew Ankle Boots (similar), Marc Jacobs Handbag}

Believe it or not, I had this dress earmarked for the Goodwill until I stumbled across this image on my instagram feed. I immediately came to my senses and rescued it from the donation pile (don’t worry, there was still PLENTY left to give away). The last time I wore this piece was almost a year ago, but I love how it feels fresh again when paired with a pale pink coat and matching ankle boots. 

{Uniqlo Buffalo Plaid Coat, Striped Jersey Dress, Wolford Tights, DKNY Lace-Up Shoes, Ralph Lauren Bucket Bag, Etienne Aigner Bag Charm}

This buffalo plaid coat is my new everything. I purposely bought it a bit oversized to make it extra cozy and perfect for layering when the temperature really starts to take a dive. I’ve been throwing it on all the time lately, both for running quick errands and for work.
