Transitional Season Dressing: The Lightweight Jacket
Yes, I know we’re smack in the middle of summer, but “pre-fall” is a very short retail season and often has some of the best pieces. So if I waited until September to show this to you, it would likely be gone.

A longer, lightweight jacket that’s Not Black has become my wardrobe Holy Grail. In Southern California, it’s a multi-season piece. I really like the color; it’s rich and makes a statement. It’s a bit brighter than the wool jacket I showed you last week. The fabric is a cotton blend with a rumpled texture and a slight sheen. It’s washable, too!
I’m 5’1″ and wearing the XS.

When I last checked, these shoes were still available, although in limited sizes. But if you’re interested and they’re out of your size, do keep checking back. Returns Happen.
