Swingin' in the Rain

The best thing to do on a gloomy, rainy day is…stay in bed and watch a new Netflix series. The second best thing to do is wear something bright and happy, and have french toast for breakfast!This beautiful seafoam swing jacket is one of the pieces I recently picked up from the Vintage Show in Toronto. It has a label that says “Custom Made in Hong Kong”, and fits like a dream! I was drawn to the colour immediately when I saw it hanging on the rack, and the 3/4 length sleeves and cute collar just sold me on it. It's hard to find a good swing jacket, and the best ones always seem to be vintage.It definitely looks more like a spring jacket, but layering and adding knitted textures are quick ways to make any outfit more autumn appropriate. In this case I chose my chunky grey sweater, with the pop in collar.My new over-the-knee boots were a surprise find at Aldo! I wanted a pair with a slight heel, but more for everyday wear. I have a pair with a stiletto heel, but those are a bit difficult to wear to brunch :) I didn’t want to spend too much on a new pair, so I really lucked out when Aldo had an additional sale on their boots earlier in the season. I tried these on, not expecting much, but instantly loved them.You know my M.O. - more is more! To make the outfit even perkier I put on my pompom hat that I bought at Simon’s in Montreal last year. I looove when the weather turns colder so I can switch between this pompom hat and my pink one!Keeping it short and sweet! It’s my favourite time of day right now - I can hear the person above me practicing the piano. They play beautifully, so I kind of consider it a free mini concert…a concert where I can wear pyjamas, drink tea, and crack open my latest Oprah magazine.Hope you’re doing well xoxox
