Two simple changes and my favorite winter coat looks completely different! Here's how I did it:
1. Removed the self-tie belt and added a brown leather belt.
2. Attached a faux fur collar using large safety pins.
Coat: Banana Republic, $130 (on sale, two winters ago)
Faux fur collar: H&M, $15 (recent)
Belt: American Eagle/Filene's Basement, $5
Jeans: Hudson/Filene's Basement, $70
Shoes: Restricted/Endless.com, $38
Great look! I like how you went from fall to winter so easily.
ReplyDeleteJ, I love all of your outfits, especially your shoes! My problem is that I'm a teacher that has also had a bunion removed back in '05, so I can't wear the tallest of tall shoes all day long because I'm always on my feet or walking long hallways. Do you have some shorter healed shoe finds that you could blog about? Thanks! (love the faux fur!)
ReplyDeleteJ. I love the coat
ReplyDeleteThank you Cee!
ReplyDeleteJessica, please check out this Facebook album with 200 outfits. I wear shorter heels and flats quite often!
