Posting this partially as a WIW recap but also to hold myself accountable until I can start adding my wardrobe into Finds

I just wrote about how I'll be returning the big Boden puffer coat because it's overkill for my current (subtropical, humid) mild winter climate, so here's what should work for me instead, now that it's finally cooled.

I've been slowly building up my dark brown closet - here is proof that I don't need to buy any more casual outerwear, lol:

#1 Hooded long puffer vest (with fleece lined pockets!)

#4 Blouson sleeved, open knit jumper (@SF does this count as 'crochet'?)

#7 Cropped bomber jacket (should I paint the silver hardware brass or gold?)

#10 Cropped leather jacket (lining is a tad tight on just *1* bicep - should I cut it open?)

#13 Black thin hooded dicky (usually wear it layered under the leather jacket or a blazer)

#16 Padded velvet hooded dicky (is this thing ridiculous? Yes. Does it keep me warm? Also yes! I have in fact worn it by itself (as shown) in public - great for impromptu rain!)

Plus bonus pics of some Xmas decor we saw on our walk today:
#20 gave DH a good chuckle - he thinks it's likely either the school's Maths or Physics dept came up with the idea (& worked out the angles where everyone would have to go to get it hung up like that) - a team effort!
#21 gave me a good chuckle - very practical, no-waste decor from a convenience store

Thanks for looking & for any suggestions/ comments you may have
