Does anyone else feel like winter hit particularly fast this year? One minute I'm living in breezy dresses, and the next it's full-on sweater weather. I'm not complaining, though. In fact, I'm quite excited for the chilly season and all of the cozy clothing that accompanies it.
I usually gravitate toward my trusty denim-and-blazer uniform in colder months, layered underneath an array of coats, of course, but not this year. Instead, I'm making my go-to outfit one that I've been spotting on so many of my favorite fashion influencers, such as Seattle-based Morgan Lillian, the past few weeks: plaid trousers and a leather (or vegan-leather) jacket. It's simple to put together but looks so chic and expensive even if it's not. (Note: Lillian's entire ensemble is from Walmart and clocks in under $200.)
