One thing I've always wished I was better at is layering. Not just a top and a bottom, but lighter layers, jackets, scarves, and other pieces that make an outfit look more complete and more fun. Inspired by a trip down the California coastline, Club Monaco's spring collection {out in January} totally inspires some layering ideas while mixing gorgeous pale shades of flowy fabrics with more tailored pieces as well. — Joy
lovely layering…

lovely layers indeed
Oh, I wish I was better at layering too – you see those girls out and about who are so perfectly styled and layered. New Years resolution?
I’m REALLY loving the last outfit. I have HUGE feet so I can never pull off that cute-hidden-feet-under-cool-pants thing….
love the bottom right look!
These are all adorable, but I really love that dress with the cardigan and booties.
Wow, you read my mind about wishing I was better at layering. I was just thinking that this morning while getting dressed. I guess I don’t get that much practice here in SoCal where it’s never terribly cold. But it’s definitely a way to make one’s wardrobe go further, not to mention add depth to one’s style. (layering also has an added benefit of hiding baby spit up) Thanks for including a post on it. Hope to see more for those of us who need a little inspiration.
When you live in San Francisco, layering is key. I love these looks, Joy!

Cute looks! I love layering!
Loving the outfit on the bottom right.
I would suggest trying an experiment on one edge. Clean it with mineral spirits or use wax and grease remover from a paint store.
Oh these are casual and nice!
