Winding Down For The Weekend

Ah, the calm before the storm...

Next week, Theo and I will be visiting family and friends in L.A. for the Thanksgiving holiday(!!).  I am sooooooooooooooo excited to see the sun!  And play in it!  And feel it's warmth!  Wow.  Nothing but clouds and darkness for the next 9 months over here so, needless to say, this weeklong trip will be a welcome change.

Anyway, I'm starting to wind down this weekend in preparation for next week.  We took a cozy walk through the park and along the water yesterday and I found comfort again in my signature look.  You know, the signature look - the go-to outfit that's a little stylish and mostly comfortable and maybe worn too much?  
That's the one.  


Nothing but an oversize top, leggings, smoking shoe/brogue/flat and a HUGE scarf.


and a fitted leather jacket!



jacket: Muubuu / top: Asos / scarf: H&M / leggings: Zella / flats: thrifted (Trotter)


Yes, these leather smoking shoes are new :)  Never-worn, thrifted favorites and a new addition to my Tiny Closet.  I know, I know they're not something to call your mom about but they are perfect for my wardrobe and really, that's all that matters right?  

For work, errands, and casual outings, I was so happy to find another pair of handsome, glossy shoes.  
To go with my signature look!
