PERSONAL STYLE'S EIGHT GREAT... 

Coats that are guaranteed to look great thrown over this season's velvet and feminine suits: 


1. COLOR CODE
  • Brighten up a gray winter day with a colorful, jewel-toned coat like this one from Michael Kors
  • Pick a coat with a plush fox collar to turn a simple Nixonian look into a glamorous cover-up
  • Make that fur collar removable in order to extend your coat’s practicality
2. BELT ONE ON
  • Replace the shapeless coats
  • Define the waist with a sharp leather belt
  • Note this smart combination: Elegant turn-down collar and  casual textured Alpaca give this Theory coat versatility

 

3. MILITARY CHIC
  • Think Military for fall. It's the season's big trend
  • This BCBG number is a perfect easy topper for jeans or over a business suit
  • Military coats come in green and unexpected shades like pink or lavender
  • Collars can be worn down for a newer look or turned up to chase away the chill

4. CASUAL MILITARY

·         Remember: Double-breasted brass buttons define the new military look

·         But be careful: Double rows of buttons can make you look extra-wide

·         Look for coats like this one from Vince with nipped waist for a slimming effect

·         The vintage-feel of this coat goes well with jeans

 

5. MILITARY MARCH
  • Add a jeweled belt to feminize an otherwise manly coat
  • Slip a red turtleneck beneath for extra punch
  • Michael Kors adds a bit of glamour with red piping and metal buttons in this version that is sure to have everyone snapping to attention


6. PRETTY PRINTS
  • With coats taking center stage, it’s time to have fun with them
  • Prints make a coat stand out and add a touch of whimsy
  • J. Crew plays around with a high waist and floral print. It may remind you of spring but, in warm wool,  it’s perfect for fall


 

7. DR. ZHIVAGO
  • Russian and Eastern European folklore is a major inspiration for fall
  • Very versatile, these coats are beautiful enough to work as an evening topper after keeping you warm throughout the day
  • Just like the Russian Cossacks, you’ll look dashing in this sumptuous style by Cynthia Steffe, which combines fur-trim with multicolor tapestry
8. LADY-LIKE
  • Declare your innocence or declare yourself an indulgent fashionista in a white coat
  • Remember: White coats are notoriously difficult to keep clean in winter
  • But it’s hard to resist the luxury and smartness of white coats like this one from J. Crew
