STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Peacoat Possibilities

There is no doubt in any Fashionista’s mind that during the winter, a trendy jacket is a must. From leather to military jackets, like any piece in our closets, there is a jacket that matches our personality and shows off our style in the best way.

The peacoat is one of those jackets that never goes out of style. It is classy, classic and is truly versatile for designers. You can find them in a bright red or a neutral tan; some are long, while others are shorter with a belt. There is no real fashion limit on this timeless style.

This Fashionista went for a modern twist on the average peacoat to show off her style while staying warm in the snow! The body of the jacket has a two-toned black and white pattern, which contrasts nicely with the fur on the collar and solid black sleeves. Together, it gives her look a very classic, and almost geometric, vibe.

My favorite part of her jacket is actually the zipper. I think it adds an interesting and trendy focal point. At a slight angle, it ties in her all-black sleeves and puts a lot of focus on her large fur collar. This is also a very modern look on the average peacoat collar, making this jacket perfect for everyday wear.

She completes her outfit with a pair of dark wash jeans and black riding boots. This really sticks to her darker, winter color palette and makes her walk to class one for the runways. Her red lipstick also complements her black and white look perfectly, adding a simple pop of color and warming up her look just a bit.

So maybe put a modern twist on your next jacket or take some tips from this Fashionista as to how to make those classic styles work for your wardrobe. The winter weather will be out soon, but trendy jackets will always be in.
