Checkered Coat- Fall Uniform

I hope it’s not too soon to be serving up FULL FALL OUTFITS but it was 59 degrees in Portland today and rainy so here we are! I am ready to share fall looks! My fall inspo and mantra this year is just to take it easy. Basics are my best friends and mixing and matching pieces is all I really want to do. Even a checkered or plaid coat to me feels like a basic or as staple piece. There’s just nothing like a good pair of jeans and a checkered coat to really complete your fall uniform. What’s been your current fall uniform?

Another thing I really have on my radar more this year are chunky, bulky boots! I really love the tomboy/masculine feel they can give a look. These ones are just teetering on the edge of being a chunky boot so they would be great if you’re curious about trying out the trend for yourself.

What I’m Wearing: Coat: The Frankie Shop (sold out!) Similar here and here, Tee: RE/DONE, Necklace: Missoma London x Lucy Williams, Jeans: Acne Studios, Bag: Demellier London, Boots: Miista

Fall Coat Styled Two Ways

Currently typing this as it’s gloomy outside and officially feeling more like fall in Portland. When I took these photos though, it was definitely not feeling like fall lol But there’s just nothing like a good fall coat to get you inspired for cooler weather! Fall style is always one I look forward to every year.

Oak + Fort sent me this coat from their current collection and it might be a fall staple for me this season. It can be styled so many different ways and I actually love wearing white and cream during fall and winter as well. No rules here! The shape is so unique and can be synched to really accentuate the waist as well. I love the looser fit but I could see it synched and worn more as a statement piece. As much as I think there are so many cute heels out there, I am all about sneakers. I wanted to show two different ways to wear this coat just by simply changing your shoes and/or bag. Outfits made easy!

I would love to know which look you like better?

What I’m Wearing: Coat: c/o Oak + Fort, Tank: Nordstrom BP, Jeans: Vintage Levi’s – Similar here (Shop Levi’s here), Sneakers: New Balance, Belt Bag: Prada via Farfetch, Sandals: LOQ, Purse: Prada via The RealReal
