All real fur featured in this blog and future blogs is vintage (pre 1980) and/or second hand contemporary. I do not buy or sell fur in the current market.
Cold weather outfits have been the bane of my wardrobe for most of my life. Coats and jackets in particular never seem to fit right or are too bulky or not warm enough to fend off the cold. I never feel my best dressed in the winter and gloomy frozen weather doesn't help my outlook.
My cure for theses wintry blues is some extra special touches of glamour.
This cornflower blue coat has a simple cut and huge fur collar. The blue is a muted shade, but a cheery alternative to gray or black. The white of the collar with it's gray flecks are very complimentary. I would pair this with simple, soft knit hat and gloves. Let the collar be the main accessory.

A wrap is wonderful for cool weather. It adds warmth and interest to a lightweight jacket. I really like this look as a way to take something as casual as a denim jacket and make it outstanding! This is the sort of piece that can easily seem too dated or too formal to wear on a whim, but keeping things on the casual and modern side can change that.

With a wide collar and buttons etched with roses, this is is a beauty. It's shorter length lends a youthful air to this white fur coat. The sleeves are a shorter length so they are perfect with a longer glove.
The lining has a design as well as a monogram embroidered on it.
