Classic styles are worth the investment and the time hunting for them. Winter outerwear, I believe is where you can invest and get your return back year after year. It should be that one favorite coat that you don’t walk your dog in but instead, the one you slip into for special occasions, dinners out, festive gatherings, or a night on the town. It is nice to have one piece that wraps you up like a present and makes going out on those cold nights feel more ladylike than Michelin Man.
Winter outerwear really does stand the test of time particularly when you go off trend. Hot color and style trends of the season are around for a hot second and, in my opinion, not worth the high investment. Classic styles are far from boring. A well-tailored classic doesn’t require bells and whistles. It requires a well delivered silhouette that fits you. Subtle design and attention to detail goes the distance. You will never regret investing in your forever coat in a rich navy, a classic black, a warm gray, or a creamy camel.
Perhaps thinking about shopping less and putting those funds toward purchases you really love and that stand the test of time is a better way to shop. Luckily, classic outerwear pieces are becoming more reasonable. Here are few to inspire you from Net-A-Porter. Check out your favorite place to shop for similar styles. Keep an eye out for special holiday sales or better yet if you can hold off until after the holidays you may score big.
