OOTD - Grey Knits for Fall + Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran Bag

Monday has arrived, and this Noob can't help but feel a little bummed - this past weekend had been fantastic weather wise and filled with fun fall-themed activities.  Sunday was a little chilly, but still comfortable enough for the ever coveted sweater weather - with just a few extra knit accessories to stay warm and cozy.  I chose to dress in various shades of grey knits atop a monochromatic black bottom that gives the optical illusion of longer legs - perfect for this 5 foot nothing gal!  This sort of outfit will be one that I will definitely fall on as a regular uniform as the colder weather hits because if it's simplicity and warmth.  Read on for additional photos and all outfit details.

Sweater - Banana Republic, Beanie - Club Monaco (similar), Snood - Holt Renfrew (similar)
Purse - Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran

I received this black and gold Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag as a gift a couple of years ago, and it has been a cold-weather staple for me ever since.  I love how big and roomy it is, and it's versatility between the shoulder handles and the removable cross body strap.  The bag, as with most Marc by Marc Jacobs bag, is a bit on the heavy side so I am mindful not to stuff it and just travel lightly.

How was your weekend?
