Outerwear with Flare

If there’s one style commitment I’m making this winter season, it’s to avoid the rut of getting into the habit of perpetually wearing black coats. Looking to change things up for the cooler months, I’ve been on the hunt for a military inspired coat in a shade that would double as a neutral but also make a statement.

And since I have a problem when it comes to collecting outerwear (hey – us Canadian gals need a plethora for all different types of outfits and weather!), I headed to my local Saks OFF 5th to see what they had in store. The brand was conveniently running their outerwear promotion (an extra 40% off!), which made this Vince Camuto number a steal and a half! With green reigning as the 2017 pantone colour of the year, this olive-hued jacket and its gold detailing were too good to pass up.

I love the juxtaposition of olive green with baby pink and these strappy pumps (with the most comfortable chunky heel!) paired perfect for a look that was quintessentially chic for a day at the office.

If you’re on the hunt for your next coat, cape or parka – be sure to visit Saks OFF 5th during their outerwear event, which ends November 23.
