During the winter, do you ever find that dressing stylishly can be difficult? Let’s face it, bundling up to brave the cold has never been sexy (unless you’re Mariah Carey and can afford a Gucci snow-bunny outfit). But for the rest of us, striking the balance between looking great and dressing warmly can take a little extra effort. Yet, if there’s one thing the well-dressed Washingtonian knows how to do, it’s to dress-up winter-wear.
By far, the best winter trend I’ve spotted this season is the bright-colored coat. It seems everywhere I look, it’s one coat, two coat, red coat, blue coat. Great coats and jackets in bright hues and elegant patterns, indeed, are the winter trend du jour.
If Santa didn’t bring you a coat this season, or even if he did but you want to take advantage of great after-holiday deals, a new coat in a dazzling color is a fantastic investment this winter.
Here are a few I recommend:
GUESS by Marciano Bow Back Topper was $139, now only $79.90 at Nordstrom
Belted wool trenchcoat in solids by VIA available at Victoria’s Secret online and catalogue for $148
Women’s belted plaid overcoat by Coffee Shop is 50% off at Overstock.com
This aqua Calvin Klein Asymmetrical Trench also comes in a canary yellow and is $148 at Nordstrom
If you are already part of Washington’s winter rainbow, send me a picture of you in your winter coat.
