shop preview: plaid, knits, coats, and party wear

It's the time of year to start filling up the shop with plaid, knits, and coats...and some festive wear for parties!  I kept a couple sweaters for myself that were meant to go into this preview--whoops--but there's still plenty of cozy stuff here for everyone.  All items coming to the shop over the next week.

    1. hi! I haven't measured it yet, but it's a juniors 13/14, and I'm guessing it will measure like a women's XS or S.

    2. Oh, that sounds like it might be a tad small! I tried one on very similar a few days ago but it was too big..! I'm jinxed not to own one! I'll check the listings for measurements, just in case.

  4. I love that coat as well, with those cool zippers on the pockets. The Black watch is wonderful as well. I love fall clothes!
