Los Angeles to Manhattan.

I'm moving to MANHATTAN! As excited as I was when I found out (and still am!) I am now equally as stressed and flustered. I live in LA, I think 60 degrees is cold and anything below 50 is when I just don't even go outside. Yeah, I'm screwed. Not only that--but do people in Manhattan even wear uggs?! I'm going to go ahead and assume not...now, I leave around mid August, and more than anything I'm worried about my wardrobe (of course).
So, what better way to organize my thoughts/rants/wants/needs than to start a series of posts of what I'm buying for the move?! Luckily I've always loved the New York chic look (hello Gossip Girl!) so a lot of my wardrobe is good to go! However, I'll probably turn into a popsicle since none of my pieces are actually for a real winter.
Things off the top of my head that I need:
1. Sleek leather jacket. I have a leather jacket--but it's more puffy (which is great for warmth so yay!) and I need something thin, sleek, and chic.
2. Trench coat. I need this ASAP. I have been looking around forever for the perfect trench (unfortunately I cannot bring myself to buy the Burberry one that I adore) and I just haven't been able to find one. When I do, definitely getting one in both khaki and black.
3. Plush fleece lined tights. I actually need everything from Plush. If I take my tights/leggings, I'll freeze the second I'm off the plane.
4. Leather gloves. I never really wear gloves, and when I do--they're cashmere. As much as I love my cashmere gloves, leather looks way more professional and I can actually keep them on while doing whatever I need to do.

This list will inevitably get longer--so much shopping, so little time.
