AW13 Chic Outerwear: Coveted Coats of the Season

According to the weather reports, we´re to expect colder temperature starting this week for as low as 13 degrees C here in Germany. After three weeks of sunshine in Asia, it´s a little overwhelming for me to plan my fall wardrobe. But the chill would seriously urge me to take a look at my coats and jackets. Here´s my wishlist, the coveted coats for Autumn/Winter 2013.

Military Inspired Coat

Maeve Coat

I have a thing for military inspired outerwear so that explains why this vibrant and powerful pink Maeve Coat leads the list. I´d love wearing it over an all-black ensemble for a deliciously stunning, colorpop!

Oversized Car Coat

Hobbs Lacey Coat

I still have a hangover with the sports-luxe trend from last season. With a hint of retro chic, this notched collared, long sleeved, and panelled midi coat fits the description. Plus it´s in the season´s favorite color, pink.

Taffeta Trench Coat

Raoul Double Face Taffeta Trench

With the sound of “taffeta”, you quickly know that the number is an investment one. That is true with this high-shine taffeta trench coat by Raoul. It speaks of luxurious material, classic style, simple design yet modern chic.

Red Collarless Coat

Planet Mid-Length Coat

Powerful red midi coat is another shade and shape I´m coveting right now. I love this luxe cashmere blend with no collar design, concealed zip fastening and slit-like feature in front.

Tartan Jacket Coat

Paisie Double Breasted Tartan Jacket

I will never graduate from Tartan print. I imagine wearing this double breasted tartan jacket with a flattering pair of cropped pants and sexy black pumps.

Tweed Double Breasted Coat

Paul Smith Black Moon Tweed

When it comes to outerwear, tailored pieces take the lead in this season´s trends. Both colored and tailored, this masculine structured coat from Paul Smith will beautifully contrast with feminine cut trousers or skirts.

Pleated Flare Coat

Red Valentino Pleated Flare Coat

Flare is here to stay. I imagine wearing it over a pleated, black skirt or a flared leather skirt. A definitely go-to coverup for weddings and formal events.
