This season its all about borrowing from the boys.  Brogues, oxfords, baggy trousers, suspenders and the hottest winter trend: The Boyfriend Coat.

Boyfriend Coats have a boxy fit, dropped shoulders, extra-long cuffs, gigantic lapels, large pockets and come in both single and double breasted variations.

Reminiscent of the kind of jacket your grandfather used to wear yet nonchalant and fashion forward in a chic without effort kind of way I love love love them!

Designers showed these boxy beauties in a rainbow of shades, from neutrals and darker shades like navy blue, grey, brown, beige and black to pretty feminine pastel shades.  No matter where you land on the color wheel you really can’t go wrong.

Warm yet chic and oh so sophisticated with a bit of retro flair Boyfriend Coats can be paired with skinny jeans and  boots or with ultra  feminine pieces like a silk blouse and pencil skirt.  The key is to be sure that the pieces you wear UNDER your Boyfriend Coat are fitted to avoid looking frumpy.
