I remember a time when I was young and naive and never dreamed of layering a coat over a jacket. Back in those days, the insides of all buildings were heated toasty warm, and I never went anywhere I would require both coverings at the same time. A jacket was just something that you wore when it wasn't cold enough for a coat.

Cut to today: rainy, frigid, beachy winds, and an ancient elevator leaving us all waiting forever on the rooftop parking lot - and later, when we went to our favorite hole-in-the-wall burrito place, and I realized that hole-in-the-wall joints don't heat their dining rooms and have actual, drafty holes in the walls (well, a door that doesn't close all the way, at least) - I was so grateful I'd planned to be able to layer my trench! I did not wear my beanie to work, but maybe I will next time. Honestly, I was too residually chilly to take it off for pics.

And yeah, no comments about being a wuss about the cold needed, lol. In my defense, colder parts of the world probably don't think they can get away without using heaters!
