This outfit was clearly inspired by one of my fashion icons, Alexa Chung. I've always admired her minimalistic, no fuss outfits. She just dresses and carries herself so effortlessly that makes her easily one of my fashion inspirations. I automatically thought of her when I saw this coat hanging on the rack, hence why I bought it (also because I needed a warm coat to pack with me for New York :P).
Here are some other great boucle coat options:
However, because of the boxy, oversized fit of this coat, it can get a little tricky when it comes to styling it. Depending on what you're wearing, you can look really bulky on top. So for this look, I kept it simple with an all black outfit with the coat as the main piece. I added a little bit of interest by mixing and matching different textures (wool vs. coated "waxy" pants). I've also paired this look with a black skinny pants to give it a streamlined look.
