It’s finally cold enough to wear coats this season which can present a problem. To stay warm you have to get bundled up. And if you’re outside often enough, people won’t get to see the cute top and jeans you may have picked out. Enter, the statement coat. This piece becomes your complete outfit without any fashion sacrifice. Now instead of hustling to get indoors to remove your bulky old winter coat, you can linger outside a little longer.
The statement coat makes an impact for a reason. People can see it before any makeup or shoe choice of yours. No matter the style, any statement coat gives a major impression. Your commitment to a bold look speaks volumes. It exudes power. It says you’re serious about who you are and you’re not afraid to show it. The confidence you exude will have people gravitating toward you.
Serious doesn’t always mean expensive or fancy. I found this coat on a final sale rack and haven’t taken it off since. I wear it to class, out with friends or even walking my dogs. Just because there’s no business meeting involved doesn’t mean you can’t look good. To keep the focus on my coat, I paired it with neutral jeans and boots. My gray hat and sweater keep the look monochromatic while adding extra warmth. While this coat is a classic style, there are a variety of trends to check out.
The only requirement of a statement coat is that it covers most of your body length. Other than that, the fabric, color, texture, etc are all up to you. Consider these cool styles next time you’re out shopping. Plaid, leopard or camel are all great options for your future investment piece.
