COAT LADY



It's that time of year again. As the temperature drops, we struggle to remain chic and warm all at the same time! (quite a challenge for few, including myself) However, when choosing a coat for the season, keep in mind the style, your body type, fit, and functionality.   

My number one rule when coat shopping is to stay open minded.   It might look terrible on the hanger, but looks amazing on you and vice versa.  

You found a coat that you absolutely love, but its two sizes too big? Keep your options open, tailoring is your friend. 

If it's your first time purchasing a coat/jacket, ALWAYS start off with  something simple and black BUT classic. A coat that 's been around for years, speaks volumes.  I decided to put together a collage with the main focus being the call of the style coat sold at modcloth.com I love the printed striped down the  middle, and that toggle effect that it gives off.  I decided to pair it with distressed jeans, a splash of tartan and trusty Louboutins.   Accessories to sass up the look and VOILA!
 So fall worthy don't you think?

Stay tuned to see how I styled this look using similar items....
