Dear Caitlin,
It’s currently pretty much my favorite time of year (except for snow) because it’s trench coat weather again! Trench coats are good for spring and fall, but not so great for summer and winter. And perfect trench coat weather seems all too rare. It always seems to go right from burning to freezing!
As for me, I’m attempting to do no tights until December. I don’t know if I’ll last through the end of the week, but I’m going to give it a go.
This dress is a little short, but otherwise I like it. Nothing a long slip can’t fix. It’s a fairly recent impulse buy (separates! I need separates!) from Forever 21 and still available.
In this post:
Club Monaco trench coat [ fall 2012 ]
Burberry scarf [ current ] [ fall 2012 ]
Forever 21 dress [ current ] + bag [ spring 2013? ]
Sergio Rossi boots [ similar ]

I love your trench coat… I only wish it was practical here.

I know I love this kind of weather too but seem we get less and less of in between weather either to warm for this kind of coat or you need a full on winter coat. The weather is crazy. And hey thanks for the info on the salons. I will check them out for sure. That is what I LOVE about blogging!

I absolutely didn’t make it! My office building is so cold I need layers upon layers. I couldn’t do no tights! Plus it snowed recently :(
Much luck!

I don’t know if I’m going to make it either– I’m going to be in London this month and the forecast does not look promising.
Bare legs and a wool coat? Not sure how that’s going to work out…

I didn’t make no tights until December either :(
Good to hear from you! I have a busy week ahead, so have a great holiday and see you on the other side of November!

I like this bundled look and the new dress! I’m keeping to keep holding off on tights for as long as I can too!

I thought we were bold with the no tights until November – but december! I commend you. I know I won’t make it, not with snow in friday’s forecast, but I have been defaulting to pants a lot more lately.
I do however, adore this outfit and hopefully I can replicate it before tights become an absolute necessity.
