Anatomy of a Layered Look

Chicago and Mother Nature have been doing an unsteady dance over the past couple of weeks. Some mornings I'm greeted by my meteorological arch enemy: sticky heat and humidity. Other days I wake up exhilarated by the emergence of fall's cooler temps, and thus scoop myself up a venti PSL. Such fickle weather brings a fashion dilemma that calls for only one solution: layering.
Join me on a trip down memory lane, as I share four of my favorite autumnal layered looks over the past few years along with the prime pieces that made them work (click the links to shop the looks!).
