A good coat can pull together an outfit in about five seconds. I’m working with Quince, and I love how their short wool-cashmere coat looks over my favorite jeans and a sweater. It’s so soft, and I can already tell it’ll be the coat I grab on my way out the door.
For reference, I’m 5’2″, and the coat is hip length. It fits true to size, and I’m wearing an XS. I did have the sleeves shortened by an inch. Plus, it comes in several chic colors, too!
Quince does everyday basics so well, especially cashmere. Here are two sweaters I’d reach for often. I like layering the oversized cashmere crewneck over a T-shirt for a relaxed look, and the classic cashmere crewneck is still $50. I also just tried the white button-up. It has a slightly relaxed fit that feels easy to wear on its own or under a sweater.
And you know I’m a denim girl, so I have to mention the Bella wide-leg jeans. They’re such a cute pair, they’re still $50, and they come in several lengths. I wear the short hem length.

J. Crew Finds
A few other things caught my eye this week. I ordered this sweater from J.Crew for an everyday outfit. I also like the idea of tying the matching scarf around the neck. I have my eye on this bandana-print scarf. And I’d wear it with the matching or an ecru sweater this winter.
I’ve also been reaching for two pairs of straight-leg jeans lately, the AYR Secret Sauce and the AG Brinley. I’d wear either pair with this Fair Isle sweater.

I think this blue skirt and top make an easy holiday outfit, and I can see wearing the skirt well into the new year.
Early Black Friday Sales
Nordstrom’s Early Black Friday Sale includes the PAIGE Anessa jeans in brown and dark wash. I’d pair the brown with an ivory sweater and wear the dark wash with the Fair Isle sweater I shared above.
Two fragrances I love are on sale at Nordstrom right now. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 and Parfums de Marly Delina Eau de Parfum both feel like a little luxury. Either one would be a lovely treat for yourself heading into the holidays.
I recently got a pair of Splendid pajamas, and they’re so comfortable. I like the medium-weight fabric, especially for chilly mornings at home. Right now, they’re offering buy one pair, get a second pair free. I’d keep one and give the other as a gift.
L’AVANT Plant-Based Products For The Home

If you’ve followed me for a while, you know how much I love L’AVANT. They’re a Seattle-based brand that makes plant-based home products. I just received their new Winter Fir collection, and the scent is so fresh. It makes my house smell like the holidays!
I use the multipurpose cleaner on my kitchen counters every day and like knowing it’s plant-based. And if you’re heading to a holiday dinner, I think the Winter Fir candle or diffuser would make a lovely hostess gift.
Another L’AVANT scent I love for everyday is Amber Santal. I keep the hand soap and lotion in my guest bathroom, and friends always tell me how nice they smell. It’s a thoughtful gift idea.
