What To Wear – Fall 2016 Coat Trends

Yesterday marks the first day of Fall and I have selected a few stylish (affordable) coats to assist with cold weather layering.  From a practical sense, we shop during this time of the year to stay warm but there’s also a fashionable purpose.

Retailers provide stylish outerwear because this is the first wardrobe piece that’s visually seen during the brisk season.  Friends, family, and co-workers will notice your coat before any additional clothing item. Personally, I like to purchase outerwear for various social occasions such as Business Meetings, Football Games, Shopping Events, and Formal Affairs.

Fashion designers also suggest that coats should be paired with trendy accessories including a wide belt, knee boots, plaid scarf, or bohemian hat.

The options are endless when shopping for outerwear and don’t forget to purchase in various colors, designs, and textures.
