Pretending I’m in Paris

I didn't get these photos up early enough! Everything is starting to sell out, but I'm kind of hoping that the retailers have squirreled away the stock to save for after these Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales. If not, it's definitely worth checking your local stores if you can to track them down. [show_shopthepost_widget id="2928909"]

Even if you don’t have the exact pieces, this is definitely an outfit worth recreating. It’s been a legit go-to of mine in Connecticut. I love putting together outfits in the summer (mostly because it’s so easy to throw on a dress) and not so much in the winter. There’s only so many sweater-and-jeans combinations I can do.

I know I’ve also said this before… I am so into wearing black right now. I warmed up an otherwise all-black outfit with the camel coat! I try to keep my all-black looks pretty feminine because otherwise, it can be too edgy for my taste.

Beret

Also, I always love pulling out a beret! Can’t get enough of it. I love wearing hats in the winter to keep my head warm, but sometimes my beanies just don’t look dressy enough.

I wore this outfit one day while in NYC for a couple of meetings. It ended up pouring rain and was pitch black by 4:30 pm. I spent the afternoon trying to flag down cabs and not run too behind.

The Lodge Coat (which I’m seriously hoping they restock) was one of my best purchases this fall. I tried it on in the store because I wasn’t sure if I “needed” it in addition to my cocoon coat. Overall, the fit is very similar and looks the same from the outside. It has great details that make it stand out though. It’s quilted on the inside and has great cuffs to keep out the cold.

Pom Pom Ballet Flat

These Old Navy shoes are also sold out online but may be available in stores still. I went into Tory Burch to return something, and the ladies in there could not believe that the flats were from Old Navy!

I did find this similar flat, which looks just as cute… especially with those polka dots. And this loafer.

I love doing roundups of affordable finds– it’s easy to find beautiful things at any price, but can be trickier on a budget! And I don’t
