Don’t you love it when fashion and function come together in a way that makes you feel a bit more sophisticated, stylish, or edgy, depending on your mood? That’s what outerwear delivers this winter with so many options it’ll be impossible to select just one style. So, don’t.
Coats take on several different looks from sweeping lengths to short and boxy to belted at the waist. Faux fur jackets are already favorites because they complement so many outfits. When a heavy coat isn’t needed, a wooly vest or denim jacket can be layered over a lightweight top or cozy turtleneck.
Any one of those styles will complement what we’ve dubbed urban prairie chic, a cool weather look that often blends relaxed boho with glam and comes together head to toe. It hints at what some might call cowgirl or country girl, but it’s more elevated and interesting. It’s about texture, patterns, and earthy landscape colors. It can be versatile and unexpected by pairing a denim jacket with a sheer black dress and embroidered sandals or a Sherpa lined vest over a print dress. And if there’s not one already in your closet, just say yes to a new fringe jacket that’s certain to be a go-to for years to come.
Bottom line: Whatever your outerwear choice, there’s no sacrificing style for function this winter.
