Fall season is on. That means heavier fabrics such as tweeds and flannels are also back in the game.

In my book the jacket is especially appropriate to be used for those semi-formal office days when you don't need to be fully dressed up but...

First one is due to my job that has kept my fairly busy this fall and the other one is a project you will soon hear more and that will take DressLikeA into a whole new level.
