Goodness! The holidays are already almost upon us once again! This is the time of year where the air has turned cold, the days are shorter and the nights are longer. With chilly temperatures outside, it’s nice to think of the thick luxurious coats stores will be selling this season.
T
his year anything goes with regards to style of coat. Long or short, both can be flattering silhouettes on almost every body type. The Tulle Marley coat by Nordstrom is a classic short shape with flattering details. This coat is plush and soft to the touch.
The Marley coat is a wool/viscose and rayon blend with a polyester lining in a very cute coordinating fabric that matches the color you choose! The collar is just big enough to make a statement. With the adorable hood attached you can shield your hair and face should you find yourself in the middle of a downpour or blizzard. The peter-pan style and curved yoke are two details that really give this coat a feminine, sexy appeal.
This coat is available in a whole spectrum of colors. The colors available are: black, aqua tint, clover, cosmic, cream, eggplant, heather (pictured), hibiscus, hot pink and navy. Try pairing it with your favorite tall boots and skinny jeans.
The long coat of the season is the Tulle Walking Coat by Nordstrom. The length will hit you at mid-thigh or go past your knees depending on your height. The cuffs feature big button detailing. The pockets are over sized, yet even when you’re covered from the winter chill you can still look sexy. The waist features a classic feminine nipped-in styling. This coat is also a wool/viscose and rayon blend with a polyester lining. This coat is available in black, charcoal, clover, cosmic, cream (pictured), heather, heather olivine, hibiscus, hot pink, navy and yellow.
Both of these coats were found on a recent trip to the department store during Nordstrom’s Half Yearly Sale. I picked up the Marley coat for $33.90, which is 50% off the original price (regularly $68.00). I chose the color hibiscus which is a deep red. It reminded me of the kind of coat Little Red Riding Hood would wear. So adorable! My best friend bought the walking coat for 50% off the original price too! The color she chose was cream. Her coat was $42.00 (regularly $89.00). She is very happy with the classic cream color.
