Spring is finally on its way, but I'd like to squeeze in a few more wintry outfits before the snow melts completely and the trees grow some leaves. Back in October I said this grey cropped sweater and white collared shirt would be my go-to combination for fall and winter and they really were! Paired with this plaid skirt and a backpack, they give off that Catholic school uniform look I've always weirdly loved (though I'm sure I would feel differently if I had actually had to wear one).

I've always had a major thing for faux fur and this season I've noticed a huge selection of faux fur coats in tons of colors and patterns. Here are a few of my favorites from around the web, some of which may actually make it into my closet, and a few that will just have to serve as eye candy or sewing inspiration (until I'm a millionaire, of course).

fall shopping

Now that September is halfway over, I've started shopping around for fall and winter clothing and accessories. Though pastels are usually more of a spring thing, I've been thinking a lot about pale pinks, peach, lavender, and baby blue. I've also been bookmarking lots of white shoes, clothing, and fabrics to use for sweatshirts and skirts this fall. While some of these items will never make it into my closet, (like that gorgeous $950 pale pink backpack), here's what I've been coveting for my fall and winter wardrobe:

1. jeffrey campbell mulder platform bootie
2. unif velvet snapback
3. j. crew boy shirt in triangle dot
4. mansur gavriel backpack in rosa 
5. topshop longline duster coat in lilac
6. nasty gal moto zip crop jacket
7. j. crew cropped surf sweatshirt
8. asos minty fresh leather flat shoes in blush
9. jeffrey campbell muskrat leather boot in blush
10. asos pick me up high heels
11. topshop graphic print duster coat
12. lulu*s switch it up reversible tan and black tote
