Here’s Some Insanely Stylish Girls Who Prove Two Coats Are Better Than One

When it got cold, you dug out last year’s coat. But when it gets really cold, you should buy a new one and then wear it over last year’s coat. Sounds cray-cray?

Not if you take some tips from these insanely stylish people...

Stick To Tonal Colours

Find a long coat in a tonal blue to wear on top of your summer denim jacket. This is not only a nifty way to use your summer wrdrobe but the mix of denim and printed top coat works so well because there isn’t a fight between colours.

Mix Up The Textures

Try layering different textures of coats, like this awesome suede jacket under a shearling aviator. Keep the sleekier layer underneath, so that anything chunky or fluffy can sit easily on top.

It All Starts With A Bomber

A bomber jacket is the ideal first layer coat - close fitting and sporty, they look great when contrasted with a tailored oversized overcoat. We heart the pink and black pairing seen on fashion designer Charlie May.

**Pair Androgynous With Girly **

A fluffy soft duster coat looks ace over a more blokey denim jacket. Likewise a formal work blazer over a casual coat looks great too.

Clash Your Prints

Warning! This looks takes guts: pick a bold printed cropped jacket and clash it with your equally heavily printed topcoat. Guarenteed style success.

Use Your Trench As A Topcoat

Instead of belting up your trench coat, wear it loose as a topcoat over a quilted leather bomber to give the look a cool edge. Dibs to this bloggers for the double denim too.

Mash Up Smart With Casual

Find your smart peacoat a bit formal for day to day wear then pair it over a casual denim jacket or a leather jacket and pair with ripped jeans.

**Use Complementary Colours **

Whoever said pink and green should never been seen was obviously wrong looking at this girl. Try contrasting a two contrasting brights to really make the look pop!
