BAF Weekly IT List

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: green woven bag / holiday nail polish / large hoop earrings (under $100) / vegan leather puffy coat (on sale!) / black shoulder bag / makeup bag / flare jeans (under $100) / classic black satchel / caramel hobo bag / moon shaped handbag /

Classic shoulder bags, and classic handbags in general, are all the rage! Mini, small and medium sized bags are what’s hot on the street this holiday season; and also as we move into the winter season.

Logo bags are over, and bags which are obvious with what they are, are also over. It’s not cool in 2023 to shout out how expensive your bag is, or wear loud, obnoxious handbags. That’s so gauche. As we move into 2023, it’s all about beautiful handbags made from high quality materials which can last a lifetime, such as the bags shown above. Love that!

Also, everyone is getting ready to travel, so this makeup bag is perfect for both travel and daily use. I love mine! You can check out my review here.

As you know, skinny jeans are done. Look for wide leg jeans and flares as we move into the new year. This pair is nicely priced under $100 and fits perfectly. Love that!

If you have been eyeing this puffy coat, it is on sale! Both the black and brown versions are on sale, so snap it up!

Cozy winter coat

Wearing: snow hat (old, also love this one) / glasses with transition lenses (great for travel) / blue statement earrings / winter coat / gloves (old, also love this pair) / stripe top / holiday nail polish / black cross body bag / black jeans / snow boots (old, current version here) /

On our recent trip to Central PA, we saw snow! Yay! It was fun to see snow so early in the season, and especially being from California! This cozy coat was perfect, and I ended up wearing it every day during our trip. Temperatures during our trip ranged from the teens up to the 40’s. Now that I am back home, I find myself reaching for it often since we have had a lot of rain lately, and the temperatures have been in the 30’s and 40’s. This coat is perfect and cozy! Love!

This photo was taken after we toured the caves at Lincoln Caverns. These boots and this cozy coat were perfect for a lot of walking and staying warm. I also used my coat to stay warm on the airplane. It was perfect!

If you are looking for a winter coat that works in rain and snow, this is it! You will see me in a lot this season!

Cozy puffy coat and flares

Wearing: blue statement earrings / scarf (old, similar here) / vegan leather puffy coat (on sale!) / blue top / G buckle belt / ivory handbag / flare jeans (under $100) / golden boots /

OK, so in case you haven’t noticed, I wear these jeans all the time! They are super comfortable and fit really well. Plus, they are under $100! Love that!

But let’s get to the important things. . .

This vegan leather puffy jacket is on major sale! I purchased this jacket last year and find myself wearing it all the time during cold weather. It is super comfortable, and I love how fabulous it looks. It is currently on sale in both black and brown. So, if you have been eyeing it, now is the time to snap one up!

Also, in case you missed it, Pantone announced the color of 2023 earlier this month. It is Viva Magenta, and you can read about it here. I have this vintage pashmina scarf from the late 1990s which is somewhat similar to Viva Magenta, so I decided to pull it out and wear it as often as possible. I found another similar scarf for under $100 here in case you want to rock the color of 2023 this winter with me! I really like it paired with blue. Which color or colors do you like Viva Magenta paired with for clothing? It is being paired with neutrals for home interior such as shades of beige or pale tan.
