Rewind past fashion week to my short trip to Utah over Labor Day weekend for this post! On the last evening of my visit, we drove through Provo Canyon and up the mountain for a night in Sundance. If you’re not familiar with Sundance, it was actually started by Robert Redford as an institute for emerging filmmakers to come together to foster inspiration, discovery and collaboration. From the institute came the Sundance Film Festival, which is where most people recognize the name. It’s also a well-known ski destination – surrounded by and nestled up in majestic mountains, it’s much cooler than down in the area where Rachel lived. It was so chilly, in fact, that I was able to wear a coat! I didn’t hate the idea, considering I was headed back to 90+ degree temps in Texas. I pulled out my new Weekend Max Mara coat that I picked up at Nordstrom a few weeks back. Since the coat has 3/4 sleeves, it wasn’t too heavy – just right for an August evening in the mountains! I love the fun, swing shape of this coat. While being fashion forward, it remains a classic in gorgeous gray. I know I’m going to get a ton of use out of it once the temps drop here! I also can’t wait to take the coat with my on my London trip at the end of next month.

Since I got a taste of fall, now all I can think about are coats! Now that I have a classic piece (also love this one), I’ve got my eye on more colorfuls option too! A few favorites include this ice blue double-breasted jacket, this oversized periwinkle coat, and this fire-engine-red cropped coat by Rag & Bone. While orange is not my color, I do adore this coat too. Shop more incredible designer coats over at Nordstrom before they’re gone! Trust me, this Max Mara coat is on it’s way out as we speak… only a few sized left!
