This season's newest coats are so stylish you may actually pray for the cold to stick around! Well, that might be exaggerating just a tad, but you get my point! No longer shapeless, dreary or frumpy, the choices for coats out there are just endless!
Whether you're looking for a long, heavy overcoat for the chilliest of day's, a short jacket or pea-coat, parka, or blanket coat/cape - the styles and choices are endless. There is something for everyone, something light, middle or heavyweight.
But make sure you wear this fall/winter item well. I've seen many people wear this in the wrong way, getting all the proportions and textures wrong. So listen up ladies and take note of the how-to for the winter coat styles of the season...
Car Coat - to keep proportions in check, the hem of this preppy staple should fall between your hip and the middle of the thigh. Tapered pants pair better than wider ones.
Parka - when the mercury really plunges, serious insulation is a must. Invest in one with a defined waist or a slim, tailored fit - or risk channeling the marshmallow man!
Military - Unless you're trying to look like a new recruit, nix cargos, pinstripes, and anything else that would make it seem as though your outerwear is part of a uniform.
Blanket coat - It's the clothing equivalent of your favorite cozy throw. Echo that vibe with solid chunky knits and comfy leather pants, limiting pattern to your overcoat.
Ladylike - include feminine touches in your outfit, such as florals, lace and pleating, combined with refined accessories like sleek leather gloves and a structured purse.
Leather detail - Now's your chance to pull out the brocades and sequins and graphic accessories. This edgy option is a natural match for any bold style inclinations.
