{ torture }

my friends over at coach (a much-beloved partner of this site) sent me this jacket a few weeks back ~ presumably to torture me. its leather is so perfectly buttery, its sleeves are so splendidly fitted, and it is so, so infuriatingly WARM!!

honestly, i can't remember the last time i was so anxious to wear something. and yet, the weather just won't permit it. i've tried cranking the A/C and rocking it around the house; i've tried it in movie theaters and chilly restaurants ~ but i'm not kidding anyone. its time has not yet come. so i stare at it on my bedroom mannequin, or pet it idly while watching netflix, and i dream of how happy we will be together next season.

have you too already found something special for fall, that you just can't wait to wear?
