OK so you know we have a weakness for coats. We saw these come off the runways in Paris last week and seriously fell in love. Here are a few pointers for buying coats at the moment (or for next year). Look for over-sized, more boxy cuts (the coat sling we talked about yesterday from Vogue works perfectly for this look). Also, the 50's shape/cape look is still going pretty strong (we've been seeing this for a while now). Lastly, the shorter cropped jacket looks oh so chic with longer skirts. Remember Derek Lam last year? Yes, this is a nice look. It's also oh so nice for the spring. So break out your maxis with shorter/cropped jackets! You'll definitely catch us doing it.
