The weather's getting a little chilly here in the Midwest, so I took advantage of the opportunity to bust out my Banana Republic trench. I'm a fan of this trench; when I purchased it, I couldn't decide if I needed petite sizing or not... the sleeves are a touch long for me, but otherwise I think it's okay. It fits in the shoulders, and the length works on my frame. Overall, it's well-made, decently priced (especially with BR's occasional 40% off sales), and classic. It's no Warhead, but it definitely does the job. :)
The silver hook bracelet was a gift from my ultra-stylish and generous friend, Carly. She purchased it in St. Croix, and it has its own Cruzan folklore: it's supposed to bring the wearer luck in love, and depending on how it's worn, indicates one's romantic status--much like the claddagh ring.
