6 WINTER Coats

I had a puffer coat last year & in the middle of the DEAD COLD winter - the darn zipper decided to get stuck over & over again!  What a pain in the neck that was!  I was either stuck inside my coat or I couldn't zip it up & would start feeling chilly! Ever dealt with that?!?

Well, that is NO way to spend a winter. I can't imagine what it must be like to be homeless & not have a winter jacket at all.  So, with that said - I'm truly BLESSED that I can afford to buy another coat & have just donated the other one. Fall is still here - so I have until about October 1st to get some type of puffer or parka to stay warm in this NYC weather.  Below are some of my faves, but I'm leaning toward Mackage #6.  

If you're looking for a coat, here are some great options! Which do you like?

Fall Essential: THE TWEED JACKET

Do you own anything by Chanel?  

I have to admit, I only own nail polish. I've never made the jump to buy a Chanel handbag - yet. This is such a popular brand, with Coco herself creating the iconic tweed jacket back in the day  - 1950s.  But, don't be fooled by the old date, this jacket is a closet staple - and whether it's a true vintage tweed you own or a newer 'inspired version' (non-chanel) it's a must-have this Fall. The texture alone is what attracts me & I LOVE the mix of colors on the modern versions like the MSGM. So chic, yet still classy!

What would I pair these jackets with?? I would add a tight leather skirt (super trendy right now) or a pair of jeans for a more casual look.

Want to make your (non-chanel) jacket seem more chic?? Add a simple chanel brooch!
