If you follow me on Instagram – follow me @laura_peruchi – knows that whenever I can I share my outfits over there. New York ended up bringing a change of style for me. I’ve never felt so free and safe to try things I’d never thought of wearing – and I also think I’m more creative to create outfits and also more smart to buy pieces that really fit me and what that matches with what I have in my closet. This winter I shared many outfits on Instagram and I noticed one thing: some of my coats are quite successful among you. It turns out that everyone asks the brand, however, they are not so recent, so they are no longer in stores. Talking to a follower, the idea came up to make a sort of shopping list, suggesting similar outfits – the best thing is that in many stores, coats are on sale! Below, the four coats that made the most success on my Instagram – and that are my favorites of the moment.
Black coat – this wool-blend coat has a history. My sister bought the piece in 2013 when she lived for three months in Holland. It turned out that it did not fit her so well and she gifted me. I wore this coat a lot during my first year here. I ended up leaving it aside and this winter I dug it out of the closet and I had wear a lot. I think what makes it more charming is the detail of the gold buttons!
Faux fur-trim white coat – it’s also old – I bought it on my first winter here. We were walking through Brooklyn, I went into a little store by accident, I saw that coat and bought it. I remember the price was great. Unfortunately, I can not remember the name of the shop! Also always makes a success when it appears on my Instagram, and I believe that is because of the Faux fur-trim
Casaco de pele fake colorido – Colorful faux-fur coat – I bought this coat last winter, on Forever 21 website and paid only $60 – which I consider a very good price for this cot. It is lined, warm and still has a cap. It’s the kind of piece that does not need much more to get you tidied up! Every time I post a photo weating it, I receive a lot of compliments.
Casaco puffer – Puffer coat – this is from Calvin Klein. It’s the kind of coat I’ve always thought that was ugly, but the paradigms are there to be broken, right? lol. It’s definitely the best coat I have to face the freezing temperatures in New York. It is very thick and his structure is windproof. I never get cold with this coat! I wear it with a thermal top and a sweater and zip all over for a super-freezing day.
Attention: all the coats below have a black option – just click and select the desired color on the page.
