Winter Coat Selection
LONDON, Sep 27, 2010 / FW/ — Winter may not be in the air just yet, but it won’t be long until the icy fingers of those colder months start to appear and send out shivers. And even if there is a lull before it gets cold and dark, autumn can bring with it a nip to the air as the summer season ends.
One of the problems facing the fashion conscious young women as the season comes to an end and the leaves begin to fall is how to dress both accordingly and appropriately.
After a summer of picking out some of the best and most fabulous looking floral playsuits, denim hot pants and fuchsia pink pedicures, it can take a while to adjust to the demands of a new season, and new trends.
So, to help with your wardrobe planning and winter ideas, here are a couple contrasting coats for next season…
Shearling Aviator Jacket
At the head of the pack in style stakes and with an inability to keep you toasty and warm is the Shearling Aviator jacket. Inspired from pilots and general army-chic, the jacket, with feminine tailoring and updated twists and sartorial tweaks, has become the must-have item for the winter wardrobe. Throw it over a fragile dress for a robust, staunchly cool finish, or team with biker-esque boots for tough-girl glam.
The Cape
Though not a coat in the strictest sense, the cape has been adorning the shoulders of some of the most glamorous and gorgeous celebrities for some time. At festivals it proved to be the functional and fashionable item of choice – easy to wear, with a theatrical finish and effect.
It’s probably best bought in black and thrown over a black dress, tight black jeans, and killer heels for gothic drama.
For the latest trends and fashions, you need look no further than the high street, for affordable and seasonal spot on looks.
