Get Your Coats On

On the topic of admiring posted on September 29th, 2011 - 2 Comments

It’s finally starting to get a bit chilly around here.

Hopefully, most of you are preparing to crack open your penny banks and stimulate the economy.

There’s certainly some fancy things, and while I know everyone is trying to get sprezzy right now, there’s always good stuff coming out of Paris.

Here’s some good picks from inexpensive to bawler status.

First off there’s the poor man’s Cucinelli down vest from Polo for $197.50

Throw it on over your sport coat but don’t feel bad that it doesn’t have a breast pocket.

 

 

If you’re really dying for outerwear with a breast pocket go for this piece for $395

You can rarely go wrong with Ralph Lauren

 

My favorite peace for this Fall/Winter is this down quilted water resistant jacket from Jil Sander.

Layer it up, or wear it alone, just wear it.

 

 

Last, but not least this piece from Lanvin is absolutely insane. I saw this in Barney’s and had to restrain myself. The fabric is along the lines of old Arc’teryx (Schoeller) and the zippered pockets really have nice detail, quiet, but incredible.

      I’m not totally sure about Schoeller’s 3XDRY fabric. I have a few pairs of Outlier’s pants but they haven’t retained their water resistance as well as I had hoped.

      This is quite the jacket. I love the color–a sort of vintage looking Navy. My favorite coat of the season is the first image in this post from my blog: http://www.thewilderthings.com/2011/10/lust-list-early-storm-style.html

      More feminine (duh) but that same sort of dulled color that this coat has.
