Blue Cocoon

DETAILS:

Powder Blue Cashmere Sweater (softest sweater I own! size small – similar style for under $100 here and here) //  Wool Cocoon Coat (size XS) // Black Distressed Jeans (run true to size) // Chanel Bag (loving this quilted one) // Black Booties // Rings //  Tory Burch Watch

In recent years purchasing sweaters has been my main cold-weather vice, but this season I have noticed a compulsive tendency towards accumulating coats. One of my favorite trending styles is the cocoon coat. Its structured lines give it a classic, feminine elegance that can instantly make any outfit look more expensive (how gorgeous is this pink one). While a cocoon coat can be the focal point of a look, it can also be worn in ways to accent other pieces. I like to roll up the sleeves of my coats slightly and cuff my sweaters to highlight accessories. This is a great way to showcase bracelets, watches,  or other dainty additions to your ensemble. Personally, as a watch girl, I have found that this trick also makes it easier to wear my boyfriend watches without about adding bulk under my layers.

My obsession with collecting watches is insatiable so I was beyond excited when I got my hands on one from Tory Burch’s new watch collection. I wanted something that was different from my typical boyfriend style I gravitate towards  but also still ‘me’. This watch  was the perfect fit. It has a smaller face which makes it a little more chic, but it is still right up my alley with a classic but sporty style (and it comes in the cutest packaging – I’m a sucker for that).

You guys have heard me rant and rave about Nordstrom but I can’t say it enough: I always have been and always will be a Nordy’s girl. Their customer service is second to none. That said,  it should come as no surprise that I already have my eye on a few more of their pieces:

Happy Halloween! Can’t wait to see all your scary looks on Instagram!

XOX,

Christine
