All In: I Love October

Happy October lovebugs! It's the first Monday of the month which means we're building an entire outfit for under $100. Let's go All In with a casual weekend look that is so easy. Grab brunch with the girls, go to a winery, but whatever you do, plan to be comfortable and chic.

As it's getting colder, I tend to lean towards warmer fabrics and patterns. The pattern option may seem odd but think about it. Plaids, fair isle, you get the idea. So today let's look at some great buffalo plaid options that are great stock up pieces for the colder weather.

Bloomingdale's, Voyager Buffalo Check, $98

How cozy does this look? I could wear this all winter. Dress it up with baubles and dress it down with a tee. I LOVE it.

Madwell, Penfield Chatham Buffalo Plaid, $80

Is this shirt a little spendy? Yes.  But you're paying for quality. The Massachusetts-based Penfield brand is a great investment. You'll have this shirt for a very long time.

Banana Republic, Buffalo Plaid Mini, $79

This is a great option to wear with booties, as the model shows. Make sure to buy the correct size. No one likes a stretched out plaid mini. Don't look at the number ladies, get the one that fits.

Free People, We The Free Vintage Printed Thermal, $58
I'm not sure why the model is staring at us like that but her thermal is sure to be warm and comfy this winter.

A simple buffalo plaid is a solid option for the colder weather, glam it up with pearls or keep it woodsy with some boots and jeans.

Buffalo Plaid

Hey lovebugs! What did you think of Capital Ken! Please make him feel welcome around here. I hope he was helpful with gift ideas for the Ken in your life.

Today I thought we would look at one of my favorite patterns: buffalo plaid. It's a larger plaid that is perfect for winter.

 

Modcloth, Kilting me softly, $62

I love this for fall. What a beautiful full skirt with excellent attention to detail.

Tulle, Buffalo plaid toggle jacket, $68

What a fantastic price for a heavy Tulle coat. I love the wide collar.

 

Madewell, Penfield Chatham Buffalo Plaid, $80

  Definitelynot how I would style this shirt, I'm picturing a cami underneath and half buttoned shirt!

Tinley Road, Buckle Front Cape, $89

I like the idea of a cape, but it's really something you have to love the shape and color. This is very elegant and simple.

I love plaid for winter because it's kind of burly but comfy at the same time. Tartan offers a little more structure with the width of the plaid; whereas buffalo plaid is a much more casual pattern.
