oooh! how to choose. i immediately gravitated to coats/jackets and finally decide on the Follow the Chimney Smoke Coat (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Follow+the+Chimney+Smoke+Coat). and of course a girls gotta wear shoes so i thought these would tie it all together = Kid Sister Heel in Teal (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Shoes/Heels/Kid+Sister+Heel+in+Teal). some mustard colored tights and grey shorts….thanks goodness for my new bag which so nicely contains my wallet. :)

First I must say that it’s a difficult choice since there are so many stunning dresses on the mod cloth website! However, I think I’d go for the Adventure Abroad Dress (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Dresses/Adventure+Abroad+Dress), the Highest Honors Blazer (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Outerwear/Jackets/Highest+Honors+Blazer) and the Keep Coming Back Boots (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Shoes/Boots/Keep+Coming+Back+Boot). I think these would suit the accessories without outshining them. And if this seems like a lot of clothes, well, I live in Finland and I can tell you it’s very cold here this time of year!

As for the scarf, I would team it with this amazing purple double-breasted pea coat: http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Outerwear/Coats/Sergeant+Purple+Coat To stay even warmer (and still look cute), I would also wear these cable knit tights: http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Accessories/Willing+and+Cable+Tights

The tote would look great with so many outfits, but the Hepcat Dress would provide an interesting combination of dots with the bag’s stripes. (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Hepcat+Dress+in+Black+Licorice) With the scarf, I think the Vivid Memories Jacket would make for an interesting duet. (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Outerwear/Jackets/Vivid+Memories+Jacket) Of course, I’m sure I could come up with many, many more pieces to pair both the purse and scarf!
