It's starting to get cool in the mornings, but I'm not ready to wear a jacket quite yet. So my favourite thing to do this time of year is to wear an oversize cardigan as a jacket. At least for the first couple, or few if we're lucky, weeks of September. The problem with oversize cardigans is that they're hard to wear with a jacket, or even most coats, so this is basically the only time to wear them, unless it's the middle of winter and it's that cold that you need to wear it under a puffer coat, which is when I'm really sad because that means it's really freakin' cold. They're also great to make your summer dresses last throughout fall, especially when the afternoons are still really warm. I love this one from ZARA. It's a no-fuss cardigan. No pockets, no buttons, it's just like a blanket that you can wrap yourself in.

It's all about layers these days. One piece just doesn't cut it. It's almost 0 degrees and it's even freezing in my office. I have been trying to get as much use as possible out of my jackets before I freeze to death, so I'm layering my outfits as much as I can before I have to wear a winter coat. I've even managed to stay away from toques (or beanies) so far. I thought this BCBG hat was a great transitional piece. But I almost caved this morning and put on a toque. I think I just have to face it. Winter is here.
