This winter is looking like it’s shaping up to be a brutal one by the way the temps have swiftly dropped. But the upside to freezing weather is always the fashions we get to pull off. It’s officially time to bring out the heavier layers and I couldn’t be more excited about it.

THE CLASSIC COAT
What’s a winter wardrobe without the classic coat right? These may consist of your tried and true peacoats, your long-line wool coats, your double-breasted coats, your wrapped cashmere coats and more! It’s one of the most commonly worn outerwear during the winter and it serves as a great everyday coat because of it’s versatility and longevity. Investing in one of these beauties will pay off big time because it’ll complement almost all your outfits and last you for seasons to come.
THE PUFFER COAT
Another winter coat staple is the puffer. It’s super cozy and durable like no other. It’s probably the best coat to withstand the harsh winter elements such as rain, flurries, and snow. And it’s another option that will last you for years. If you love the cold weather I’d suggest going for the cropped version of the puffer. But if you’re anything like me and have a low tolerance for the cold weather, you should definitely invest in the long puffers that cover most of your body.
THE STATEMENT COAT
Even though it’s freezing outside, there are still some days when you want to be extra dressed up and cute. That’s where the statement coat some in. My personal favorite type of statement coat is the faux fur/ teddy coats that have been making waves for a few years now. The faux fur/teddy options are actually really warm, sometimes even warmer than classic coat which makes it a great winter option. But that’s not the only option when it comes to statement coats. You can go another route and choose a more daring coat in a bold color or silhouette as well. Statement coats are great for special occasions or even to wear every day if that’s your style.
THE TRENCH COAT
I know you’re probably thinking, “isn’t it way too cold for a trench coat in these temps?” The answer is actually no because trench coats can work well for freezing weather too. Once you layer up with your thick knits and sweaters you won’t have any cold dilemmas. Plus, trench coats in heavier materials like leather or even corduroy will keep you warm and chic. It’s also a great way to showcase your style because it’s a break from the classic winter coat.
THE SHEARLING COAT
A good shearling coat is divine during the wintertime. They’re so robust that they’ll keep any bit of coldness from seeping in. Plus, they’re so beautifully made and acts as a great layering piece for your winter outfits. Owning one of these will gain you tons of style points and have you feeling extra good every time you look in the mirror. A pick me up we all need during the gloomy winter.
