Avery has us covered when it comes to blanket coats (har har, see what I did there?), but if a cozy wraplike jacket isn't your jam for fall, think about a more structured style. (But really, how many is too many coats? Rhetorical question.) Since we're finally celebrating the season of layering, let's look to five chic street-style stars to show us how to make the most of our fall outerwear.
In absolutely adorable news, Ella Catliff of La Petite Anglaise roamed the streets of London in a mod-meets-afternoon-teatime outfit: a cherry-red-bow-embellished wool coat over a lace top tucked into a pink flared miniskirt. I love how she coordinated the mini bow on her striped flats to the one on her the jacket in a subtle (read nondorky) way and finished off with a tones-of structured bag.
SoCal-based Courtney Trop of Always Judging jetted over to London Fashion Week and bundled up in her winter whites: a streamlined Cameo parka over a crisp white Uniqlo shirtdress. Her Jimmy Choo buckle ankle boots and Mansur Gavriel leather backpack rounded out her sporty-meets-preppy—and perfect for LFW—outfit.
Christina Caradona of Trop Rouge got a jump on spring 2015 with a suede moto jacket in a lush forest green hue. (So much '70s-reminiscent colored suede on the runways right now!) She counterbalanced her edgier coat with preppy details: a white shirt tucked into a high-waisted black pencil skirt, menswear-inspired socks, and flat loafers.
OMG, OMG, OMG. It's the perfect weather for Blair Eadie of Atlantic — Pacific to break out her Alexander Wang contrast-collar wool cargo coat. She tempered the severe lines of the jacket and exposed pockets by wearing it over a feminine LBD by Tibi and finished off with pair of killer ankle boots, also by Tibi.
And Natalie Suarez of Natalie Off Duty traipsed about the hip streets of Berlin in a stellar set of layers: a Veda laser moto jacket in petal pink (I love, love this), over a crochet vest from Forever 21, and then over a vintage-y ruffled white blouse. Her AG distressed skinny jeans, pointy Modern Vice boots, and plush wine-hue Worth & Worth hat completed her '70s rocker-girl outfit.
Which layered coat look do you like best? Are you excited to finally wear your fall jackets?
