Every morning, before I sit down to write Le Catch, I pull on a jacket. Sometimes two. My coffee may be hot, but I’m always cold—an L.A. paradox if there ever was one. While everyone else seems to float around in tees and tank tops, I’m bundled up like I’m après-skiing in Aspen. So the idea of wearing a ski jacket off the slopes doesn’t sound far-fetched to me—it sounds… practical. Especially when it's the new H&M cutie, above. I also love the Avec Les Filles faux fur wrap jacket that I would argue is actually an indoor cardigan! Just the other morning, below, I layered not one but two layers (including a new J.Crew puffer barn jacket) before logging onto a Zoom meeting. I looked like I was ready to summit Mt. Whitney. But, knowing better than to appear that way on camera, I popped in my new Dorsey drop earrings instead. Sparkly distraction achieved. No one noticed the layers of fluff—just the chic shimmer doing its job. And speaking of cozy-but-chic, this morning’s jacket-donning routine led me down a delightful rabbit hole of new jacket crushes (and maybe a pair of sparkle-makers too) from Eliou, Maje (the fringe scarf is cleverly detachable!), this easy to layer zip-up Sheep Inc knit (love the pop of red!), this blue Pixie Market parka, this stolen-from-the-men's-department jacket, this boucle-meets-moto hybrid on mega sale (under $300) from 3.1 Phillip Lim, and and this faux fur-trimmed River Island.
