Since autumn officially began, rust has been my color of the moment and I'm taking it right into winter with me. I love pairing burnt orange with a good light pink, but this time I darkened up my accessories in the pink family with a deep plum—it was a good way to winterize one of my favorite color pairings.

And can I just say, the struggle to find the perfect camel coat is very real. I was looking for a good camel coat for years, but could never find The One in my price range, so I ended up shelling out between $300 or $400 for this one from Aritzia. Once I found it, my size was sold out online and I ended up calling customer service to have them track down one in store to ship to me. It was a saga, but absolutely worth it. All this to say, I searched forever and could barely find one good one to link for you guys. I'm pretty happy with the similar one I found, and it's at a fabulous price point. However, if it's not the coat of your dreams—keep at it. Search everywhere in unexpected places. One day, it'll turn up.
