This Highland cow sweater gets comments every single time. It's thick, soft and not itchy at all, and it's held up through three washes already. My go-to for chilly mornings by the lake.

Unboxed these red boots and wore them to brunch the same day. Real leather feel, zero break-in, and the color makes a plain black outfit pop. Worth every penny.

The denim cardigan jacket is the perfect in-between layer. I throw it over a tee for the grocery run and over a dress for dinner. Soft, not stiff like most denim.

Wore this wool coat on a windy walk along the lakefront and stayed warm the whole time. Long enough to cover everything, and it looks so much more expensive than it was.

Velvet flares with the suede Chelsea boots is my entire fall wardrobe now. Comfortable, flattering, and I get asked where the pants are from every week.

The quilted vest is exactly what I needed for October in Chicago. Warm core, arms free, and it layers over every sweater I own. Ordering the second color.
