LBS Chic: Coat Check

This fall season I’m seriously mad for plaid. I titled this post Coat Check because it seems like so many retailers this season are offering dope coats, jackets and ponchos in these bold check patterns that really make a statement.

I found this one at ASOS.com and I guess it was so popular, it’s already sold out! But never fear, I have ten other chic options for you to choose from to get a similar look:

Savonne posted about the importance of a great coat in this Best Coats for Winter post already, so I don’t have to reemphasize that an awesome winter coat is KEY.

It’s often the only thing people see you in whether you’re cruising the subway or walking the city streets. And it’s the first thing people see when you walk through the door! You should have different ones for different occasions but if you can only have one – get one that you LOVE.

What I really liked about this Throw On Coat from ASOS is it’s ease. It was perfect for in-between fall/winter weather because you literally just throw it on – no buttons and no zips. I’ve been layering it with my infinity scarf and long-sleeved turtlenecks underneath.

It also works really well dressed up for evening events with a dress and heels or dressed down with acid-wash jeans like this particular look.
