Fall Essentials: A Quilted Jacket

Zara Quilted Jacket, similar

I feel like one day it just hit me; "I need a quilted jacket." They've been around forever, but lately the style has strayed from Michelin man, to sleek and more chic. I think the trick is to pick one in a neutral color like black, grey, tan or olive. Also pick details that aren't too trendy, but classic like zipper details or buckles. Anything too over the top will get few uses then stuffed in a donation bag when the trend has moved on. 

I found a wonderful olive green quilted coat by Michael Kors at Nordstrom Rack a few weeks back. As soon as I tried it on I fell in love. Don't you wish all your dressing room experiences were more like that?

Another day, another chambray button down. Or is it? It's no secret I love my chambray shirts, but what drew me to this particular one, was although it was intended to be worn as a dress (which I love), I thought it was a little short, so I have other plans for this one: worn like this, as a tunic with leggings, as an over shirt, or as a beach cover up. 

These printed trousers from Zara caught my eye right away. I liked the watercolor print and the color pattern was neutral enough to match with so many different things. In a sea of black, blue and grey skinny jeans, these are a fun pattern to add to the mix on a gloomy fall day.
