Steal This Cool Girl's Denim Look Now

Seriously, what is with this weather? We've pulled out the wool coats, unpacked the scarves, and might have even started mitten shopping, when suddenly, we're reaching under the bed for our shorts. Today's high is supposed to reach an unseasonal 69 degrees, which is why we want to emulate our new intern, Kat George, who rocked a denim-on-denim look with a sheer blouse, high-heeled Doc martens, a slouchy black purse, and of course, the requisite jeans and shearling jacket. George, who's Australian by birth, just hopped the globe from Melbourne by way of London, where she's very used to Mother Nature being super-schizo. She helped us round up 5 pieces to copy her look. Now if you could only hear her accent…
