My mother-in-law recently made this amazing chunky mustard cowl neck scarf for me and I couldn't be more thrilled. There's nothing like having something made for you that is one of a kind and from someone that you love. The color is so pretty and I love the chunkiness of the yarn.
There are just some items that I just can't help but wear over and over. This Forever 21 tunic is probably a bit too thin and short to wear in colder states (even with boots) but that's the beauty of living in SoCal!
I had to figure out a way to winterize this dress and was elated when I put together this outfit. See how I wore it earlier this Summer here. By adding a blazer, chunky scarf and tall boots, I turned a simple Summer dress into a Fall/Winter ready outfit. This is the perfect weekend outfit for me. It's casual but still dressy enough to go out to dinner. If I get too hot (which I tend to break a sweat when shopping), I can take off the blazer and just wear the dress and scarf alone.
My newest love is this vintage Coach cognac leather cross body. It was gifted to me from my MIL. She's had it forever and it's in great condition. I feel so lucky to have it! It is so similar to the H&M cross body that I have grown to love, especially being able to shop hands free. The quality is impeccable and the rich cognac color is gorgeous. I am not a huge Coach fan but their leather is really high quality. It's the perfect size (slightly larger than H&M) and the length of the strap (not adjustable) is a great length for me. I've seen some similar ones on Ebay but just make sure you check the condition/authenticity of the purse and seller before buying.
How do you winterize your favorite Summer items?
