Preppy Winter Fashion with Barbour and LL Bean

I'm suuuuureee you haven't heard the news but it kind of sort of snowed this weekend in New York. We got pounded with two FEET of snow and it was AWESOME (see picture above). 

SHOP MY LOOK HERE:

Barbour: Red Beadnell [vintage; similar here & here] / LL Bean: Fisherman Sweater / Ralph Lauren: Blue Oxford / Gap: Jegging Jeans [similar] / LL Bean: Bean Boots / David Yurman: Pearl Earrings / BaubleBar: Mini Monogram / Ray-Ban: Classic Wayfarer Sunglasses

Layers are totally your friend in the winter. It's best to pack as many as you can into your jacket. To be honest this jacket is a size too small so my sweater and oxford combo made it so I couldn't quite move. But of course it was totally worth it because like, I look great (see above).

I don't know why but winter totally brings out my preppier side. In summer it's so easy to go the bohemian/homeless route wearing anything available but winter I feel like you kind of have to put some thought into it. Is that just me?

Being snowed in throughout Saturday afternoon and night I decided to really give my apartment and clothes a deep clean (more on that later) and brought to my main closet a lot of favorite items like this old Barbour jacket. It's a classic beadnell style but totally vintage judging by the details in the coat. I remember I snagged this bad boy off eBay my first year living in New York and I'm still so grateful I did. You know how much I loveeee my red coats :)

And for those of you wondering where that snowball landed (the first picture from above) I'm hear to let you know it smacked Andrew right in the face and he caught my reaction. Not the prettiest picture of me but I was crying from laughing so hard!
