This past week has made one thing clear: Fall is here! I woke up on Saturday morning and temps were in the 40s. The 40s!! I have quite a few coats and jackets thanks to last year's Salvation Army coat sale {I bought 5 coats and jackets for $100} ** so I just threw on my fave leather jacket and a tribal print scarf.
Winter's finally arrived and it's absolutely freezing on the East Coast. Besides being uncomfortable, the colder temps can make dressing a bit tricky, especially if you want to dress up for a night out...and you're relying on public transportation. Last weekend I attended a post-wedding toast for some colleagues and I was determined not to let the weather cramp my style.
So I grabbed my favorite winter coat {faux fur collar LOFT coat from the Salvation Army coat sale}, bright tights and brocade style pumps. I had a lace dress underneath but it was the coat, tights and shoes that really kept my look fun and playful. And I was actually warm.Fall can be a tricky time to dress. Or at least it has been as of lately. One day it's a brisk 45 degrees and you're bundled up and the next it's in the low 60s and you only have to step out of the house wearing a blazer. And this week has been no different.
Though the weather didn't require a heavy coat, it was a little too chilly for a bear leg. So I whipped out the wardrobe staples ever woman needs: leather coat and tights.Everything in my outfit was thrifted, except the tights and booties.
