Watching a movie as a child, I was always enthralled with the leading lady’s wardrobe. She wore the most spectacular clothing, including beautiful coats. Her coat always matched her outfit and she looked like she walked out of the pages of Vogue magazine. My love of coats has remained through the years. This Topshop check coat is my newest addition and it’s keeping me warm.

For a work style look I paired this coat with Banana Republic navy pinstripe trousers, Club Monaco cashmere cream pullover sweater, Madewell red suede boots (for a pop of color), Target dangle earrings and Chloe small cross-body bag. For a little extra warmth I wore a pair of white ankle socks with my boots (it’s a trend I like).

If you decide to purchase this coat then check the sizing chart. The sizing is a little different and the chart is an excellent guideline.   I ordered a size up and I’m glad I did. The best part is I got the coat on sale and currently most sizes are available.

I particularly like the details on the back and sleeves of the coat.  It updates the look and compliments the traditional color.

These Target earrings are the cutest. They’re also lightweight and inexpensive.  A girl can get behind that combination.

I may not look like I walked out of Vogue, but I sure feel like I did – in the end that’s all that matters.

Enjoy your Wednesday and I hope to see you tomorrow.
