All About Outerwear!
Tis the season of trends so let's get up-to-date on them! While there are many outerwear trends afloat right now, the top three, in my opinion, are asymmetrical, the boyfriend, and the shearling.
Pictured above are examples of each outerwear trend. First, we have a jacket which combines four trends in one: asymmetrical closure, multiple zippers, leather, and a short aviator style. In the next picture, a shearling jacket, combining the furry/plush lining and collar, leather outer, and bomber style. In the final picture, we see a blazer combining the boyfriend cut and the dangling chains over the pocket, reminiscent of the military trend. Bountiful buttons are another must for jackets and coats this season. Also, make room for waistcoats and stylish, tailored vests as they too are popular fall outerwear options.
These example show that finding a wardrobe staple can keep you looking trendy and stylish. With the right jacket, you can personalize the trend to your liking with what you wear underneath it and how you accessorize.
While knowing what trend to look for and how to style it accordingly are important, knowing what fit best flatters your body type is just as essential. Here are a few guidelines to consider: if you're petite and slender/average, you should look for jackets/coats that hit mid-hip to an inch or so above; otherwise petite, look for jackets/coats that hit mid-hip to an inch below that feature a belt that accentuate's the smallest part of your waist; if you're tall and slender/average, look for jackets/coats that are either crop, mid-hip, or mid-calf length; if you're otherwise tall, look for jackets/coats that hit mid-hip or mid calf that are double-breasted and feature a belt type detail to accentuate the smallest part of your waist.
Regardless of the trend you choose or the fit that's best for you, just remember it all boils down to what you feel most comfortable and confident wearing. Style isn't style if you don't make it your own! :)
