November is the worst month. Who’s in agreement with me? The days are short and dark. There’s ice everywhere. The trees are bare. I can’t go outside without freezing my lil’ booty off. Usually, all of this would be fine if it was December with the magic of the holidays just around the corner to look forward to. But November is just cold and angry and horrible. I’m just not a fan. I’ve been having so much trouble getting out of bed lately and I’m just counting down the days until Christmas. That’s the only thing that can make me survive Winter.
As I’ve explained before on ze blog, I wear my parka (ootd here) and either my Uggs or Sorels 24/7 in the winter. However, that doesn’t make for very good content for my outfit of the day posts so I take the risk of freezing to death in just a blazer and t-shirt to please all of you. You’re welcome. Please click my affiliate links below as a way of showing your appreciation. Haha just kidding…. unless..? (Hopefully y’all know the meme I’m referencing).
So this blazer. It’s great. It’s the Cherrelle blazer from Aritzia in the Sagesse colour and it’s the best blazer to ever be invented. My girl, Vanessa, introduced me to these blazers a couple of years ago and my life hasn’t been the same since. I first got it in the Cairo Gold (AKA mustard yellow) colour (see here) but I always knew I needed to add another colour to my closet. So, when this sage green colour came out at Aritzia, I bought it immediately. Next up on my wishlist: the rusty red colour. It’s perfect.
Underneath my blazer, I am wearing my new favorite t-shirt. I picked it up at the Julia Michaels concert and it was the best night of my life. I flew to Vancouver and got to meet Julia Michaels as well as her whole band and it was just the most amazing experience. Originally when writing this blog post I was going to tell the whole story of that night but I think it’s going to be a story I keep to myself for now. What?! Taylor?! You’re NOT sharing something on the blog?! Unheard of. Although this blog has become an online diary of sorts, I feel like sometimes moments like this are more special if they’re kept to myself. So that’s what I’m gonna do.
