So this Fall darker browns are a trending color and I decided it's time for me to dust off my brown corduroy jacket I've had in my closet for many years. This used to be my "go-to" fall jacket years ago but have not worn it in the recent years. Thought about donating it many times but I always change my mind because it is somewhat unique and I'm known to hoard things 😊. 

I really wanted to pair it with some black jeans because I'm always so quick to reach for blue jeans out of habit. So I created a black, brown and gray outfit. But wanted to say, as I am analyzing these pictures I'm not 100% happy with this outfit. I think straight leg jeans would have been a better fit because of the lapels of the jacket if that makes any sense...I just think these lapels and skinny jeans visually throw off the proportions and they make my shoulders appear wider than what they are.... I did have my son snap a photo of me wearing straight leg pants and I'm sharing that one at the end of the post and I've used that photo in the logo above.

As I'm sure you can imagine, I don't have a link to this jacket, but you can always check ThredUp or Poshmark. It's by the Relativity brand. Otherwise I did find a similar style jacket at Macy's and it's currently 30% off (as I type this) and comes in the 3 colors shown below - Deep Cherrywood, Dark Chocolate and Ashwood Brown, as well as a in blue. The  styling on these jackets is definitely more up to date!

                       

Happy Friday! It's almost time to put away those winter clothes and boots, but we're not quite there yet and today I'm sharing an outfit with some cognac colored fur lined hiker type boots I found at Target reduced to less than $12! I almost left them there  thinking they were too furry, but my daughter convinced me to get them. I know they are only $12 but I don't usually buy things just  because they are cheap (I've been there many year ago and that would contribute to too much clutter in my closet but not really add to a functional wardrobe which is what I aim to have.) But I am happy she conviced me to get them and wanted to wear them at least once before it's time to put away the winter boots.

My cognac colored saddle bag is old (by Nine West), this  this bag would be similar and comes in several fun colors.
