Fabulous Coats

I have been on a serious wardrobe organisation spree the last couple of days, ready for the cold weather. I'm sorting out what I have and what I need.

I was stressing about the fact I don't have enough long sleeve tops to get me through a whole week, let alone a season, when I realised that its all good having beautiful tops to wear, but we spend so much of Autumn and Winter in coats. If they're lacking in the oomph department, then it ruins the whole feel of your outfit.

This is where my new two day old coat comes in. Armed with a Zara voucher I was determined to find something new season and fabulous that I wouldn't want to throw come March time, which is when I found this little gem.

You can't go wrong with black, until it starts to fade, it will see you through years (and even then, purchase some dye and it will be like brand new!). The shape is incredibly flattering, fitted around the waist with a slight flare, accentuating an hourglass look, and as the furs detachable, come early spring when I'm still after layers without that winter feeling I can whip it off and have a different coat.

I love dusky shades, especially in pink. When I want to be girly it gives me the colour hit I'm after without being too much. Tones like these work all year round!
