Hi dolls! This weekend I went to Boston to visit my best friend Adriana and had the best time! I surprised her for a little pre birthday visit as she turns 21 on Wednesday! We had so much fun and got to enjoy just fall weather! Yesterday I came back to New York and my parents came in and we spent the day in SoHo shopping! The weather is becoming a bit more fall like and this post is all about my favorite fall accessory, oversized coats! I hope you all enjoy! Much love!

As I said before, I collect coats and todays post is centered around a staple I believe every person, male or female, should have in their wardrobe, a trench coat. Trench coats are so versatile and can be worn almost all year round. I would recommend browsing different retail stores and if possible, designer stores, for a good quality trench. My advice is to invest in this piece because it is something that will get a lot of wear and having one that is made of good quality will prolong the life of the coat.
I wanted to keep my outfit simple and comfortable for a day of shopping so I chose my favorite pair of black jeans. This post is all about staple pieces, I guess! Every one, again male or female, should have at least one pair of black jeans that they love and fit them perfectly. I know that finding the right pair of jeans can be a life long quest, but once you find a store that has a fit and cut that you like, try to buy the same pair in black, light blue and dark blue so you can have the three basic colors! I like to get my jeans from H&M, as I find they fit my figure the best!
I kept the top simple with a long sleeved black cotton shirt. This shirt is tailored in the back and is quite form fitting, which I like. If I'm wearing an oversized coat like I am here, I like to keep the outfit underneath a bit tighter to keep everything comfortable. All black outfits are my favorite because it can act as a canvas for bold accessories, or it can be very simplistic with minimal accessories for a more chic look, which I personally love.

I kept my accessories for this outfit simple and necessary. I don't like to wear a lot of jewelry normally, and especially when I am shopping, so instead of a necklace I added my big scarf from Anthropologie, as it was very cold and windy yesterday. I love chunky scarves for this time of year and for the winter months because it adds a bit of warmth and coziness to any outfit, which is always a sweet look.
I also wore my Christian Louboutin oxford shoes. These shoes are one of my favorite pairs I own and I just adore them. Keeping with the red themed accents, I carried my Chanel purse as well.
I hope you all enjoyed this post! I like keeping some of my looks quite basic with statement accents in order to keep the outfit fashionable and comfortable! I hope you guys take my advice and treat your self to a trench coat this season, especially with Christmas right around the corner!! I love you guys and I'll talk to you soon!!
