I have two fall jackets and two winter jackets.
FALL. I have my *famous* red Sam Edelman wool coat. I wear it a lot and got many compliments on it over the years. I bought it in the fall of 2021 when I jumped ship from my old district to this current one (where I am so much happier):
FALL. A Nordstrom brown jacket, bought in 2021 as a casual alternative to my red wool coat. I wore it many times, while in NJ and while traveling. Picture below is from Denmark, 2023:
WINTER: My eggplant-colored Avec Les Filles puffer jacket. I bought it in 2021 also as my main winter jacket. Also wore it with pleasure for many winters and springs (!) – see below.
Finally, for WINTER I have my red ski jacket bought in… 2016!! That jacket went skiing with me; it went on my Fulbright in Chile trip with me, I wore it through both of my pregnancies, wore it when the kids were small, etc, etc… A true friend. I still have it, except… it looks worn, and the front pocket zipper is broken. I think it may be time to say thank you and goodbye.
And now there is a *new* addition to numbers 1 through 4. I don’t have any pictures in it yet since it just arrived yesterday. Also Avec Les Filles, it’s a beige wool coat, quite long and, I think, it will be warm in winter. I envision it with boots since it’s quite long and I may need a bit of a “lift.”
For the kids. My daughter grew out of her grey Uggs (hand-me-downs from my friend Anya) and her beige boots (a hand-me-down from my friend Nastya). My son only ever has hand-me-downs (because Anya has an older son), and he grew out of those winter shoes, as well. It was time to…go shopping.
Many of those shoes a tad bit big for them but I’m sure they will grown into them. I especially love the Kurt Geiger’s with hearts ❤
As you can see, I do not shop often but when I do…
Are you updating your wardrobe this fall? Adding or removing any pieces?
