I may be the only one in this mindset, but I've been loving Monday's lately. I always need some kind of fire under me to get moving and stay on schedule and Monday's always seem to be that fire that starts off my week. It's probably because I know come Thursday I'll be completely unproductive and counting down the minutes to the weekend but at least I'm getting things done, right?!

This is a short week, thankfully. I'm looking forward to making my way down South to Nashville, Tennessee to spend the holiday with my family, eat some damn good barbecue, and of course sip on some strong whiskey. Exactly what the holidays are made of! For now, I'm enjoying some of the record setting layer weather we've been getting in NYC and am taking full advantage of keeping those heavier winter coats in storage. 

A great down-vest is a vital layer to get through the chilly months in the North-East so I've been collecting them all season in both light and heavy weight styles. This one from Tommy Hilfiger is filled with some ultra-plush down to give a little extra warmth and weight for the days I'll be going sans coat. It's just about the easiest layer to pull off... stylistically and functionally. Speaking of, I scooped up one last pair of Flexi Shoes for the year. These Nexus kicks are my go-to in style and function... especially for my longer days like today where I'm hitting the ground running.
