What’s your criteria for buying a new winter coat?
Let’s be real. A good winter coat can be a major investment. But if you choose wisely, the coat will last forever (or at least a good long time) and remain trend-relevant for seasons to come. Here’s my criteria for buying a new coat:
1. It has to go with my boots/shoes
Even though you shed your coat once you come in from the cold, outside, your coat is part of your outfit — which is why it’s critical to pick wisely. I have a really diverse collection of shoes: everything from crazy high 5″ Balenciaga platforms, to sunshine-yellow ankle booties, to everyday flat boots, so I try to find a coat that will transition smoothly from high fashion to low-maintenance. I find that leather jackets, peacoats, and belted puffers make the switch most easily.
