I joke, more often than I probably should, that I’m really a big kid. If you ever see the face I make when I eat bleu cheese or grapefruit, you’ll get it it immediately.

A little less embarrassing, perhaps, is my sensitivity to itchy or uncomfortable clothing. I don’t know if I’m alone in this, but I easily hyperfocus on uncomfortable clothing – my world seemingly coming to an end. This is the worst with itchy sweaters.

Layered Sweater Outfits

When it’s super cold outside, I don’t notice it as much, but I live in LA, so “super cold” is 52! Anyway, I refuse to not wear my sweaters even if it isn’t frigid outside, so I’ve been adding pieces underneath.

What to Wear Under sweaters

I ALWAYS wear a tank top under sweaters at the very least. But I recently started layering collared shirts under my wool sweaters.

You’d think it’d be too hot, but the cotton shirt feels cooler and the ‘itchier’ material isn’t right against my skin, so it’s actually a nicer experience.

My favorite layered sweater outfits feel a bit more stylish and flattering with the multiple layers!! It’s the best discovery in how to layer sweaters since – well since I started wearing sweaters!

Packable Raincoats

This raincoat (why is that one word?!?) is by Cole Haan and I’ve had it for years. It’s a great windbreaker, but it’s packable which makes it IDEAL for travel. It comes with a small, zipper pouch that it folds up neatly in. I can throw it in my carry on bag and not have to worry about another jacket or thing to finagle as I make my way through the airport!

Nordstrom sells a variety of them. This packable coat, the only one I can find online at the moment, is a bit looser than this, but there is also an option to cinch in at the waist.

The style’s availability comes and goes – definitely along with the seasons, so we’ll keep an eye out for more as we find them! You can also check out this list of lightweight inexpensive packable rain jackets.
