Cozy Faux Fur Coat

Ever since I was maybe just 10 years old, I would come to expect that winter would end by January 30. Alas spring never officially starts til the end of March so I don’t where I got that idea!!! (March 20^th to be exact!) But this year it seems, it is colder than usual, just about EVERYWHERE! We can even see snow on the hilltops where I live and that has never happened before!

When it’s this cold, even in sunny California, I like to reach for the coziest (and softest) piece in my closet, which at this moment is this super warm faux fur coat. I actually bought this jacket for running to and from the gym because it’s been so chilly, but I realized it’s perfect with sneakers or as I did yesterday, boots! If you live somewhere where it’s snowing, Shopbop has a ton of cute winter boots and a ton of them are marked down (including Sorel boots!).

Speaking of which, these Goodnight Macaroon boots are one of my favorite buys of the season and they are still available! They also come in taupe and brown and they are having a site wide sale right now where you can get 30% off your purchase!

I wore this look for a nice dinner at Cheesecake Factory which is one of my favorite restaurants ever. I’ve tried so many of their dishes but since I’m eating healthier now, my go-to dish is their Thai Lettuce Wrap appetizer! This dish can satisfy TWO whole meals for me! It occurred to me recently however that they probably don’t use organic ingredients so I’ve decided to challenge myself to make it at home. The recipe is a bit overwhelming though since it has so many ingredients and various flavors (that’s why I like it!). Wish me luck! XOXO
