DETAILS
A military feel is seen in most of the coats this
season. We see trench coats with strong
hardware and militaristic details, and of course the military feel comes into
play with the style of the Pea Coat.
THE COAT OF THE
SEASON
The one coat that stands out as THE trend this season is the
trench. The trench coat is one that is
classic in style, and will be in your closet for years to come. It is an investment, and a wise one.
JACKET FOR OUT AND
ABOUT
If you are one that is out and about a lot during your day,
consider adding a Pea Coat to your outwear wardrobe. A very classic style but this season, done
with new details. Look for a Pea Coat in
a bright color or one with unusual buttons.
DRESSING UP
Peplum is a detail that is very popular this season; seen in
skirts, tops and yes, in outwear. The
Peplum coat is a great look to dress up a simple t-shirt and jeans, or as a
detail that will mix perfectly with your holiday best.
A SIMPLE VEST
A simple vest isn’t so simple anymore! I love the idea of throwing on something
cozy, like a vest, to get me from the car to the grocery store. The vest is such a smart way to not overheat
when running errands. My challenge has
been finding a vest that is cute, fashionable, that didn’t make me feel like
the Michelin Man. This season, that challenge has been answered in the fur (or
fuzzy) vest; such a great on-trend addition, yet functional. The fur vest will add instant style to any
outfit…so when you look in the mirror and think “I need something else to
finish this look”…look for the fur vest!
You will be glad you did.
FUR and LEATHER
If you aren’t adding some leather and fur to your closet
this season, you are missing the trend boat! Fur on boots, as collars on
jackets, as a detail on a scarf – fur is everywhere! The definition of fur this
season doesn’t necessarily mean an animal skin, but rather refers to anything
furry or fuzzy.
Leather (or pleather – faux leather) in details and in
statement pieces for outerwear this season will be very important. For example,
a peplum cut jacket in leather will show you are leading the way in trends! My
advice: don’t invest in the leather pieces, instead look for pleather. Your
budget will be glad you did.
SCARVES
Scarves became the ‘it’ accessory several years ago. This season the scarf to have is called the
foulard. This style refers to a small print in several (generally bright)
colors. Loosely wrap this seasons scarves around your neck in a “thrown on”
way.
