cold front

While some people amass bags or shoes, I have a penchant for collecting jackets. Thanks to LA's perpetually cool evenings, my habit thrives. Plus, it serves me well, because a good jacket is the ultimate (and easiest) remedy to any what-to-wear crisis. Around this time of year, before true jacket weather hits, my stockpiling begins. Here's the line-up so far: the Loro Piano-spirited shawl-collar, belted coat from H&M (above!), the red and long fleece Maje, below, the sleek gold-buttoned Anine Bing cashmere, the leopard Zara, this crazy Isabel Marant, and this statement Khaite.
