Oversized Layering

I found this oversized dark gray layering jacket and also a lighter gray one similar (but a different brand) and am loving them.  This one has a one button closure, but can be worn open as well.  This outfit was worn at the end of October.  I'll have another post up in the next few weeks of an additional way I've worn it recently (hint:  pairing it with gold)
