Pre-New Year up until a few weeks ago, I started compiling a 'Fashion Resolutions' list for 2015. I realize that we are well into January now, but better late than never?? The list I created includes resolutions for my everyday styling. Mostly trying to do more of things I like but for whatever reason don't do that often. First up [since it is so frigid today in the typically sunny CA], I chose 'The Outer Layer'. I want to find new and different ways to work my outfits. So often I start with a top or dress and just go from there. I thought this time I would start with the outermost piece and work my way in [that's what he said.] This luxurious coat from Mint and Pink [< - - click the link!] is the perfect starting point since it is so structured and detailed that it is pretty much an outfit in itself. Oh, and it is super warm and snuggly. [Did I mention that it's cold today?!]
I love the fact that you can wear this open, with a low collar, or . . . wait for it . . .
You can hook the button to the back part of the garment and wear it all bundled up. BOOM, magical coat.
Does anyone think I look like I belong on a ranch, or is that just me? Guess I should start adding these pix to my 'rancher's wear' board on Pinterest . . .
I like the swingy, Audrey Hepburn-esque feel of this coat. La-la-la!
Since it's in the 50s in the bay area today [I just checked], I probably won't be unbuttoning this coat much. But I DO have something under there.
Annnnd an outtake of me and my baby Marls for good measure. She makes me so happy. And I kinda think she likes me too (:
I think we can all agree that Marley is the more photogenic of the two subjects pictured here today.
What I'm Wearing:
