One of my favorite parts about living in Ireland's cold climate was coming up with fun new ways to layer pieces. I got a great deal on this sweater from Penny's (a discount chain store in Ireland) and thought it looked almost exactly like this sweater from Madewell...just a whole lot cheaper :) However, the tan color of the sweater looked a little weird against my skin tone. So, I layered my chambray underneath to add a contrasting color. Plus, when its 40 degrees out...layers are always a good idea. Finally, I topped it off with my light cropped trench coat. Even though my trench is light on its own, it makes the perfect outer layer for most cold weather outfits. It's a great basic to have in my closet, and I'm hoping I'll still get some wear out of it during this California winter.

Layers for 40 degrees? Oh man, I'd be running around with no layers! It always surprises me the way we react to temperatures differently.
