2 Coats for a Winter Day

Today, I am sharing two winter coats that I like to wear when I want to dress up whatever I am wearing. I am wearing both over a simple outfit of jeans, sweater and boots, but you can see how both really dress up the look. I do have several other winter layers such as two winter down jackets as well as some lighter jackets.

I found this Free People sweater while thrifting a couple of years ago and the fun sleeve with the sequins really make it an interesting top. These flared jeans always surprise me with how good they look (I got a compliment from some random guy at the store). The grey booties are from my little foray in to boots at Belks: I have had no regrets about the 3 pairs I bought that day.

Red Peacoat

A statement coat is timeless. I really have no idea how old this is (around 10 years) and it was an end of season find at Kohls. I love those toggle buttons and the pockets. I don’t wear the hood up much but it is nice to have it.

Plaid Coat

This coat from the Junior’s section at Belk was $29.99. I had a little bit of a decision to make with the choice of colors, but I am so glad the saleslady convinced me to get this one. I love the classiness of the black and white plaid and it will go with everything. At the time of the writing of this post, it was on sale for $24.99. I am wearing the medium.

Do you own a favorite dressy coat? I find them to be something you do not have to replace very often if you buy the right one for you.

A bientôt!
