It seems that every year I’m itching to buy a new winter coat as soon as the temperature dips — and this year was no different. J.Crew is one of the retailers I typically look to when I’m itching for a cold-weather update and I fell in love with their new “swingy coat.” I love the relaxed shape, which allows for bulky sweaters, and the warm sherpa-lined hood. There’s even a button tab at the neck to keep the cold air out. In addition to this coat, I’ve ordered this faux fur jacket to try. I already have a longer furry coat in navy, but I love the waist length of the H&M version. I’m also saving up for an insulated coat from Aether. It’s a huge investment, but so worth it. Dave bought one a couple of years ago and he’s always bragging about how warm and cozy he is on even the coldest days! Either way, a new coat is such a smart purchase for your annual winter wardrobe mostly because it’s all anyone is going to see for the next six months!
J.Crew coat | Gap jeans | Banana Republic long-sleeve t-shirt (old; similar) | Ferragamo flats (similar budget-friendly version) | Rebecca Minkoff purse (old; also love this one)
Love this classic look and the bright flats are a perfect addition.

I am such a coat person, but it never really gets cold enough to wear them here in the south. So they mostly just sit in the coat closet until it dips down to 30 one day a year. Then I break them all out!
Love the pop of read on your shoes. J. Crew always has the best coats!

I was literally just thinking someone needs to make a chic wool coat with the lining of one of those super warm coats and the crosby jacket seems pretty close to that!

I love the hood!! I do have a $100 gift card to J.Crew…but I’m trying to behave this month. I definitely don’t need any more coats but I kind of want a teddy one because they look so soft and fluffy! Ha ha.
