Earth Tones

Since November, when my husband started working from home, we began a weekly tradition of coffee dates together on Wednesday mornings – after we drop the kids off at school, we drive into the city to our favorite little cafe and spend time just the two of us.  Sometimes I find myself looking forward to the middle of the week even more than the weekend because that alone time is so rare & special.  I wore this outfit on our date last week – I still can’t get enough of plaid & this mix of rich earth tones felt right for the chilly (but snow-free!) weather.

What I’m wearing:
Forever 21 sweater (similar), Old Navy coat (similar here or here), Target scarf (similar here or here), Jou Jou pants (via TJ Maxx; similar), c/o DMSX pumps (on sale here), gifted Zara bag (here or similar for less here), Bracelets: J. Crew (similar), Vintage & c/o INPINK (here), Dockers aviators (similar)

    Neutral, earthy tones are my favorite! Are your pants leather, faux leather, or waxed denim? They're so cool! And TJ Maxx is the best for finds like that.

    Dates with your husband are special and don't have to be a big deal. My husband works many hours and isn't home alot, so when he has that one day off a week, we make a point to go have lunch and then get a coffee while our kids are at school and just catch up and have good conversation. It's my most favorite part of the week!

    Love the bag – going for the similiar for less version, altho I can't find what material it's made of. Guessing it's not real leather considering the price. Trying to order by website is spinning @ the "confirming order" phase. ~sigh~
