Colors of Colleen

If there’s one piece in my closet from fall I’ve been able to wear into winter and dress up or down it’s this teddy bear jacket. I took a chance and ordered this for a little over sized look and also didn’t want to splurge on something that is just a seasonal fad. I finally found this one from Shein and the quality and warmth is ah-mazing ! I’ve received so many compliments on it and it’s so reasonably priced at $33 right now!

It also comes in a ton of colors, I went with the true copper teddy bear like color. It’s a golden brown. There’s a bunch of others at similar price points and styles on their site too. I’m 5’10” and this jacket was long in the arms and not too short in the waist. I don’t like anything that cuts into my torso so this length was great.

I also like this version that is a little longer and more of my usual style for a coat. My denim are an older pair with gold button details but I found some similar pairs that fit this look. I was laughing so hard during these photos because it was freezing up on our roof and super windy for photos but we went with it! I love looking at the pool on the roof top across the way and still plotting my plan to make my way over there this summer... if summer ever makes it way to the east coast again.

Hope everyone is ready for the 3 day weekend! We’re doing a little weekend escape to D.C. to visit some family and have dinner planned at my favorite restaurant!

Last weekend I traveled upstate for an event and while there my family and me headed to Becker Farms for our traditional apple picking and wine tasting. I can't believe it has been a year since I posted my first blog post, taking photos back at this same farm. It's been an exciting journey so far, starting as a hobby for some self care, and now becoming a new passion.

This day had the most perfect sunny, yet crisp fall air. As an easy look I layered my plaid scarf over my sweater. It was fun to listen to the live music and take in all the fall sites before getting back to the hustle and bustle of the city. I've linked a few of my favorite fall scarves and oversized sweaters at the bottom of this post.

Hope everyone is taking in all of the cider and apple everything this season!

Outfit Details:

This is an easy and comfortable look for fall and can pair well with a variety of footwear such as booties or an over the knee style. There's so many plaid options for scarves and warm chunky knits this season that can be styled together. Some of my favorites are mis matching stripes with plaids or bold colors.

I love this olive green color and I found it at a great price point at Target! Their sweaters are also on sale. Buy one get the 2nd at half price! This is my first sweater of this kind from there, so I'll have to see how it washes and wears over time. I've linked my outfit details and similar options.
