Oversized Coats

By Amra B. 


For some time now, I have been obsessed with oversized coats. They are chic, elegant, and amazingly comfortable. Also, their ability to hide the rest of your outfit on those days you don’t feel like dressing up is simply GENIUS! I like oversized coats in almost any color, but my favorites for this season would have to be camel, black, blue and pastel pink. Below are some tips on how to wear your oversized coat:

  • Combine them with slim pants/jeans: A great way to balance out the “roominess” of your oversized coat is to add a pair of slim pants/jeans. Wearing a loose pant, dress, or a skirt with an oversized coat might make you look bulky.

  • Add heels: Balance out the “casual” feel of an oversized coat by adding a pair of killer heels. I love wearing strappy sandal, a peep-toe bootie, or a great pump with my oversized coat.

  • Accessorize: add a fun hat or a scarf to an oversized coat. Oversized coats tend to be basic, but can be made exceptionally fun and dressy with just the right touch of wonderful accessories.

  • Wear them open: I love the way an oversized coat falls when it is worn open. I also love wearing a thick sweater underneath and a scarf to keep warm when leaving the coat unbuttoned.

Wishing you an amazing day!

My friend Théophile took me to this wonderful spot that resembles the interior décor of Versai; there is beautiful art, lovely white marble floors, and a piano that plays for guests while the are enjoy tea from the prettiest porcelain cups. Hotel Le Bristol is located close to La Madeleine Hotel Le Bristol offers a variety of desserts, including some of the most delicious macaroons; however, it was hard to pick just one and we finally decided on trying all of the goodies with a mixed scones, cookie, and sandwich plate.
