These times of year, when summer gives way to fall and winter gives way to spring, can wreak havoc on your wardrobe, particularly when it comes to the outerwear you choose to wear. It could be cool in the morning, but by the time you leave work, it could be warm and sunny outside. On the days you wear your suede jacket, it always seems like the rain will start falling out of nowhere, and when it starts to get chilly, you always wish you had dressed warmer. This is an essential guide to the coats and fashion jackets that you need to have in your closet, and it goes as follows:
Army jacket
Now, the jacket doesn't have to be army-issued, but it should be
made of canvas and have a neutral tone, such as beige or olive. This will be
helpful to have on hand for the unpredictable early fall days. Because army
jackets are typically worn with more laid-back attire, they are ideally suited
for wearing with a pair of skinny jeans, your go-to relaxed T-shirt, and some
earth tone booties.
A denim jacket
Although certain denim jacket styles, such as acid wash, come and
go, the fundamental characteristics of a classic denim jacket remain the same
over time. They are ideal for the late summer evenings and can be layered with
a sweatshirt that has a zip-up front for the cooler, windier days of fall. The
trend right now is definitely toward darker washes. They are more adaptable
than lighter washes, and they have the potential to appear a little more
stylish when teamed with the appropriate accessories, such as some sparkly
fashion jewellery.
A blazer
There is a common misconception that blazers are only appropriate
to wear to the workplace, but this couldn't be further from the truth. You can
give your outfit a bit of an edge by pairing your favourite work blazer with a
V-neck and some high heel pumps. Blazer jackets have a reputation for class and
professionalism, but you can also give your outfit a bit of an edge by wearing
a blazer jacket. This ensemble is ideal for an evening in the late summer or
the early fall, when there is a bit of a breeze but the temperature has not
really dropped yet.
A trench coat
Whether they are going to work or not, women who want their outfit
to have a bit of a professional flair should consider wearing a trench coat.
Trench coats are great options for this. It is possible to dress it up with a
pair of tailored pants and heels, but you can also dress it down with a pair of
jeans and some booties. It is the ideal jacket for dressing up. It's possible
that if you wear a trench coat, you can't help but look like you have your act
together.
A peacoat
Even though a wool peacoat won't keep you as warm in subzero
temperatures as a heavier winter coat will, it's still a good idea to have at
least one winter coat that you can wear to more formal events. It is also a
great coat to have in November, when it may not be cold enough to bust out the
down jacket, but it is just too breezy to wear a denim one comfortably. This is
the time of year when it is best to have a coat that can accommodate both of
these scenarios. A peacoat in black or charcoal is a classic choice; however,
if you want to shake things up a bit, you could choose one with a pattern, such
as houndstooth or a bright red or winter white variety instead.
A parka
It's possible that puffy jackets aren't the most stylish options
currently available, but there's no denying the significance of having a few in
your closet at all times. During the winter holidays, if you have a
particularly long commute, your sassy peacoat might not be enough to keep you
warm. If you spend a lot of time sitting in your car rather than walking around
outside during the winter, a shorter parka may be more comfortable for you to
wear while you are sitting down. If you spend a lot of time walking around
outside during the winter, look for a coat that hits your mid-thigh or lower.
Keep it clean!
The colder weather can be especially damaging to your clothing and
footwear. Maintaining your clothing, despite the fact that it may require some
additional time, will really help to increase the lifespan of your clothing,
and of course, it looks nicer when it is clean and in good shape. When it comes
time to put away your outerwear, make sure that it is spotless before you do
so. When the weather turns icy, there is a good chance that salt will be spread
on the roads and sidewalks in urban areas. If you live in such an area, you
should be prepared for this possibility. Applying a winterizing treatment will
help protect your boots and any other shoes that you wear frequently during the
winter from the elements. It is available in spray and wash forms and will help
protect your shoes from the damage that salt can cause. Additionally, it will
assist in maintaining their water resistance. When it comes to boots, certain
liners can be removed and thrown in the washing machine along with the rest of
the load. If that is not possible, you can attempt to clean them by hand using
a scrub brush and some laundry detergent. Make sure there is no mud or other
debris on the bottom of the shoe so that your closet doesn't get dirty.
