It really felt like there was a transition right at the start of the month where the temperature solidly dropped into the 50sF consistently! A coat or thicker jacket went from being a style choice to becoming an essential. And the sun was rising so late in the morning (compared to when we leave for work) that I've had to try a few different environments/alternatives - none of which I'm convinced work well lol.
Outfit 1 (for work) - EATME off shoulder tulle OP, GU cropped turtleneck sweater, Evelyn bijou belt, DreamV cross strap pumps, Liz Lisa heart spindle purse
Outfit 2 (for work) - EATME off shoulder blouse layered OP, Honey Cinnamon fukubukuro jacket, EATME chunky heel pumps and Michael Kors manhattan purse
Outfit 3 (for work) - EATME cut out OP, Honey Cinnamon fukubukuro jacket, EATME belted beret, EATME chunky heel pumps and Dr Martens heart purse 
Outfit 4 (for Christmas party at work) - Liz Lisa bi-color blouse, Liz Lisa bear book skirt, Honey Cinnamon fukubukuro jacket, Liz Lisa double ribbon beret, Liz Lisa 3-strap pumps and Samantha Vega flutter purse
Outfit 5 (for work) - Liz Lisa sailor collar blouse, Liz Lisa heart wish jumperskirt, Liz Lisa pom pom fukubukuro coat, DreamV cross strap pumps and Samantha Vega flutter glitter purse -
Outfit 6 (for walking to dinner and testing my artificial light possible solution lol) - EATME double belt boa coat, EATME reversible bucket hat
I've been wearing this simple combination a lot lately for casually going out - long coat from EATME + long sleeves, jeans and sneakers + bucket hat to keep my head warm. It's not particularly stylish but it's easy to wear and good for quick outings
Outfit 7 (for work) - EATME garter feather knit top, Mercury Duo compact faux leather riders jacket, EATME (pleats wrap) skirt, EATME lace up short boots and Michael Kors manhattan purse
Outfit 8 (for early dinner in Yokohama) - GU cropped turtleneck sweater, Honey Cinnamon trapezoid fukubukuro skirt, Michael Kors jaime OTK boots, Samantha Vega bijou ribbon purse
Outfit 9 (for errands at Costco) - JeanaDraws otter sweater, offbrand fluffy circle scarf, WEGO pleated skirt, Liz Lisa big ribbon beret, DreamV cross strap pumps and Samantha Vega bijou ribbon purse
Outfit 10 (for getting a haircut in Tokyo) - EATME high neck set OP, EATME double belt boa coat, OneSpo fukubukuro beret, EATME lace up short boots and Dr Martens heart purse
Outfit 11 (for work) - titty&Co dress, GU cropped turtleneck sweater, Honey Cinnamon fukubukuro jacket, Olivia Burton hair scarf, EATME belted mules and Michael Kors manhattan purse
Outfit 12 (for work) - Liz Lisa Grand Magasin OP, Liz Lisa cardigan, Liz Lisa fukubukuro coat, Liz Lisa music note lace up boots, Samantha Vega flutter purse
Outfit 13 (for work) - EATME decollete blouse, EATME fukubukuro cardigan, Bebe pencil skirt, EATME cross wedge pumps, Michael Kors star embellished hamilton purse
Outfit 14 (for shopping in Yokohama) - Liz Lisa floral ribbon OP, Liz Lisa fukubukuro coat, Liz Lisa ankle chain OTK boots, Maison de Fleur tote 
Outfit 16 (for work - last work day of 2022!) - EATME vest bustier OP, EATME fukubukuro coat, EATME side goa garter long boots, Michael Kors star-embellished hamilton purse
Outfits from Iwakuni trip - EATME reversible bucket hat, EATME double belt boa coat, EATME garter side goa long boots and Michael Kors manhattan purse were the constants every day. I also brought 2 dresses for the plane rides but jeans for the field work days.
I'm still learning a lot about layering (for example, finally figuring out that you can layer cardigan and thicker knits under coats/jackets wtf lol) and the best way to style some of the coats I have, but it's been fun despite the cold. Choice of footwear and covering my legs with a layer (even tights) is making a huge difference too. I know there's still a couple months of this, so I have a few more outer pieces I'm eyeing that I hope will make it to a good winter sale to add a little more variety into my wardrobe so I'm not constantly wearing the same 3 or 4 :)
