The Essentials

If simplicity is indeed the ultimate sophistication, then my style is getting sophisticated as fuck.

The Find

Just when I thought I had robbed my grandma of all her vintage treasures already, I stumbled upon this coat in her basement and grabbed it without much hesitation. Granted, the color is not my favorite (what is this called anyway, taupe, greige, tan?), but the coat was too good not to give it a try (and hey, at least it's not pink). The moment I put it on, a few associations came to mind, the most notable being "the executive" (fellow die-hard Seinfeld fans will know what I'm talking about) and "the exhibitionist" (no further explanation needed, I reckon). The way I wore it here, it's giving off a bit of an androgynous vibe; on another occasion, I might try it belted, with a skirt and over the knee boots.

Brogued Up

Much to my dismay, autumn is here and it brought along its share of gloomy, rainy, grey days. Due to my lack of fall-weather-appropriate clothing, dressing up can be a nightmare under the circumstances (hence the absence of outfit posts), but at least I'm covered (well, almost) in the shoe department. These brogues I had bought back in spring are my go-to shoes for days when walking longer distances is required. Aesthetically pleasing, fairly comfortable, and water resistant, they're my way of giving fall the middle finger.
