This week has been very, very busy at work, so I didn’t get to catch up on my blog reading until late last night. Lots of beautiful looks to pick from – I’m loving this transitional phase into fall. Lots of plaid, autumn colors and boots. Oh the boots. I especially like Sarah Vickers’ outfit – I want to wear that exact outfit to the Nutcracker this year.
While it’s not quite pea coat weather in Texas, I’m heading to NYC this weekend with a girlfriend of mine, and I wanted to get a new jacket for the trip. I looked high and low to thoroughly assess my options, and ended up getting this J. Crew coat. I adore J. Crew so much – and their winter line is incredible. All of the bejeweled sweaters get me so excited.
I thought I’d share my other considerations. I liked the bright cobalt color of the other J. Crew jacket, and the professionalism of the 3.1 Philip Lim coat. Burberry jackets have always been my favorite, and this pea coat is no exception.
What are your thoughts? Have you been coat shopping this year?

I bought Sasha this J. Crew Factory Sherpa-Lined Jacket for our upcoming Colorado trip because it was so cheap. I honestly had no idea if he would like it or not, but thank goodness, he took to it immediately and wore it around the house. It is very comfy, I must admit, as I’ve worn it quite a bit myself. The “ultimate GQ man” to me is very rugged – perhaps why I love Colorado as much as I do. Sasha loves this style as well and will be decked out in this very get-up during our trip (I do the packing, of course!). Those MacAllister boots are my favorite, but we had to buy insoles to make them more comfortable. What is your favorite male look?
PS How amazing are those lab boxers? We called them the Belle Boxers (after our pup).
It’s official: I have to get a tulle skirt. The perfect fall essential that can be dressed up to a party or dressed down to hang out with friends (see Blair’s layered chambray + checkered button-down combo). I’ve been seeing lots of tulle lately, and I decided that I need to bite the bullet and buy a skirt. I’m leaning towards the Free People About Girl Tutu (number two above). Are you a tulle fan?
