that weird time period between fall and winter.

ok, I couldn't come up with anything clever, but I think the title is pretty self explanatory. In New York, we've definitely reached that period (temperature wise) where it's pretty chilly to just wear my fall coat, but not quite cold enough to wear my winter coat. I was telling my mom about this sometime last week, and she suggested I start layering one of my fur vests underneath my coat. One word: genius. I don't care how ridiculous I may look, I'm sooo warm. At first, I was a bit self conscious about having this giant furry collar-esque thing peeking out of my coat, but now I love it! I love the way the "grandma fur" peeks out and contrasts with my military jacket. so cute.

(faux) furryness.

This entire year, I've been embarrassingly behind on my magazine reading. And I've almost caught up, I just have the Elle magazines left! So for my plane ride home last week, I grabbed a few magazines in another attempt to catch up. As I was reading on the plane, it hit me: I need a fur vest. I couldn't wait to hit up the thrift and vintage stores once I got back to New York. Well, we went to Nordstrom on the last day of their anniversary sale to look at a pair of loafers (we couldn't find them) and found a faux fur vest instead! I got the cream one, and I'm so, so excited to wear it this fall and winter with all my flowy, chiffon skirts and suede boots!
