Hope y’all doing okay and had a fantastic weekend. I personally had a very busy weekend taking photos at a wedding but apart from that my weekend was quiet relaxing catching up with my favourite Tv shows.
I wore this outfit a while ago when the weather was extremely cold. I paired the off white belted boyfriend coat with a black pair of skinny jeans with matching top/blouse and a pair of strappy heeled sandals for an effortless monochrome look.
Oversized/boyfriend coats have been popular this winter and are set to continue through AW15. They’re versatile and look great for work or play. Boyfriend coats give an effortless laid back look with a masculine vibe. They come in different style and colours for a sharp tailored look.
