Anyway, now that it's October and occasionally chilly in New York, I've been rocking my sweet new trenchcoat, which I actually had tailored a few weeks ago. Tailored. Like an adult. (Let's chuckle over the fact that I only had it tailored because I bought it on clearance almost two sizes too large and had no other choice but to have it tailored BUT SO WHAT WHO CARES because that ultimately means I made the time to take it alllllllll the way to a tailor, stood very still for 20 minutes while they pinned it, and then I went alllllllll the way back just to pick it up. Crying Responsible, Grown-Up Tears right now.)
Trenchcoat: Zara / Scarf: H&M / Sweater & Jeans: Forever 21 / Wedges: Target
As someone who really loves holidays, I'm genuinely surprised that I don't own more fun seasonal attire (see: Art Teacher Style). I bought this sweater last August and completely overlooked its potential Octoberiness. It will take its rightful place in my sweater drawer next to my hilariously tacky applique-covered Christmas cardigan.
Also, I figured a leopard scarf with a cat sweater wouldn't be total overkill since the cat sweater is really simple and understated. I'm using "understated" loosely, as it is a giant white cat. It also kind of feels like Xzibit should pop in to say "YO DAWG, I HEARD YOU LIKE CATS, SO I PUT A CAT THEMED ACCESSORY ON YOUR CAT SWEATER SO YOU CAN DIE ALONE."
Tell me about your festive seasonal/holiday clothes! Unless I'm the only weirdo who has any, in which case, lie to me and say you do so I feel less bad.
