Plaid & Elbow Patches

The season of layering and rich, dark colours (admittedly my favourites) will soon be over, so I'm taking advantage of it while there's still time! 

I found this blazer at the thrift store for $5.99...it was one of my Closet Remix Challenge cheats that I had to have. Herringbone and elbow patches were everywhere this winter and I was obsessed, so to find the two together, in a blazer, in my size, at the thrift store...was something I considered a gift from the fashion gods...so I had to buy it.
 I decided to pair it with some plaid and one of my favourite bags for today's look.

I got this Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac on mega sale on Black Friday. It was sent to a wrong address somewhere in Ontario before it finally made it's way to me almost five weeks after I bought it...longest wait ever! 

I had been pining over these bags for a long time and was going to go with a black one, but when I saw this colour (Port), I changed my mind! I love it.

I'm going to miss blazers, plaid buttons downs, and oxblood when spring finally arrives.
