I am so excited about this season. Woo hoo!!!
A statement coat is a wardrobe essential. A long camel one like this one I am wearing is a piece that is timeless. It will never go out of style and would never be dated. It can be worn on its own as a dress, can be dressed up and can be dressed down like I will show you soon in a near future post. I must also add that the coat is more than cozy, a perfect “cold combater”
For this look, I wore a skinny jeans and an autumn flora shirt as my canvass. I added a statement coat to dress the look up. The coat came with its own belt but I detached the belt and attached another belt unto it to glam it up and most importantly to cinch in my waist. I am a very tall and thin woman so it is important for me not to loose my frame.
Adding a belt does that magic for me especially on this kind of oversized coat. For people who are of average height/not so tall, I would recommend a knee length coat. Check here to learn how to choose the perfect coat for your silhouette.
To add a classic touch to the look, I added a metal floral brooch to the coat to compliment the flora pattern on the shirt. The brooch adds a duchess factor to the look. The duchess of cambridge(Kate Middleton) wear brooches all the time. I love brooches as an accessory in my closet. I love the structured oversized collar of this coat, it is a statement on its own.
The belt is a multitone one and it adds a nice colour contrast to the coat. I especially love the elastin detail, it stretches nice and easy. I also have to mention that I wore the belt front to back. The pocket detail on the coat is gorgeous, I love it and I also use it to keep my hands warm.
To tie the look together, I wore a nude pair of Cornielle. I love this particular pair, they frame my legs and add a very sexy allure to my feet. They are the perfect beige for my skin tone. They are not as comfy as the pigalle though. I wore the pigalle 100 here.
See my article on the power of nudes and why wear them here.

Love this! I have been considering a camel coat for a while – I have an absurd number of coats (almost as many as shoes, which is something of an accomplishment), but no camel one.
You should go for it Sarah. It looks nice on everyone, maybe one not as dark as this one. Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers, Mojisola
I think I would go for a lighter one. If nothing else, I can go try on a bunch. That never hurt anyone (though my pocketbook? That might suffer an injury).
Oh Sarah. Happy hunting. Please let me know how you get on.
Cheers.
Will do! I think this week is too busy for some shopping, but hopefully before Christmas!
You look so beautiful ….the colour suit you perfectly …..<3

Hi Eni,
Thank you so much. I totally agree with you about the camel coat, so elegant. Have a great evening.
Cheers,Mojisola
Great ensemble. I like the play on fall/winter neutrals. The clean lines lend to a very chic look. Your creativity is showcased by having the artfulness to put your belt on backward. I really like that.
