ALL IN THE DETAILS: Something Borrowed, Something Blue

This winter is all about the coats and jackets you’re wearing. Some Fashionistas prefer wearing coats decked out in fur and colors galore, but for me it’s always nice to dress with one color in mind. Whether it’s baby blue, electric blue or navy blue, wearing this color in your outfit will leave you feeling anything but sad.

I spotted this Fashionista bundled up and immediately fell in love with her coat. What makes it so unique is the subtle, fur-like texture and the lightness of the baby blue hue. The long length of the coat is good for Fashionistas wearing a dress or leggings. My favorite part about these trendy long coats is how warm they keep you; if it’s a warm day, you can wear your coat open to show off the sweater or dress your wearing underneath.

This Fashionista kept the fur dominant in her outfit by pairing her baby blue coat with a fur cowl. Wearing a cowl or an infinity scarf is the perfect accessory to pair with this Fashionista’s long jacket. She also accessorizes with a basic black purse with a brown leather pattern on each side. The black in the purse adds a nice balance to the rest of the black in her outfit and the pattern on her purse is spot on. The rest of this Fashionista’s outfit is black and basic, but bold indeed.

This Fashionista perfectly portrays what it means to be color balanced. Blues have always given my outfits a nice touch and now it’s your turn to experiment. Next time you need something colorful to wear, choose something blue.

How To: The most influential piece this Fashionista is wearing is her long blue coat. First, find a coat you feel fits your style needs. Then, pair it with basic black leggings and a black scarf. Finally, find a purse that contrasts with your coat and stands out as an accessory.
