Truth time: plaid hasn't always been my favorite. But over the past few years -- and more so recently -- I've been stocking up/hoarding it like it's going out of style. Which, in a few seasons, it actually might. But for the time being I just can't seem to get enough. In fact, there are no less than four plaid shirts that are arguably identical sitting in my Forever 21 shopping cart right now because they're all just so different and I can't decide which I like best. Cue the belt/sweater scene in The Devil Wears Prada.

This jacket was never a question, though. I couldn't believe my eyes when I passed it in Target -- on my way to get something I actually went into the store for, no doubt. It looks way more expensive than it was and that's always welcome in my world. Plus, its sneaky leather detailing (major bonus) inspired me to break out my faux leather leggings for the first time this season and welcome them to fall 2013. So extra points for the sartorial kick in the pants. See what I did there? ;)

XO,
Alison

  2. Love that Target piece! Also, what color is your red lip? I'm trying to branch out and try more bold lip colors, but as a ginger that's proving to be pretty difficult for me.
