Must-have Jackets & Coats for the Office

By Cefashion @cefashion

Office outfits can look dull and colorless, especially in fall and winter when our styling options narrow down a little. Fortunately, there are plenty of cool jackets and coats fashion designers have created in order to keep us stylish and chic no matter the degrees outside. If you want to look at your best when going at the office, check out these cool jackets and coats for the ultimate fall-winter office look!

Oversized double breasted coat

A double breasted coat is the perfect choice if you want to add some volume to your upper body, so consider wearing one when you want to make your feminine curves stand out. The self-tie waist will accentuate your waistline, while the wide lapels that fold below the neckline recreate the modern structured shape designers and fashionistas love so much. Choose a monochrome beige, black or gray oversized coat, so you can experiment with various chromatic combinations when it comes to shoes, jewelry and accessories.

Coat with contrast sleeves

A slim fit coat with contrast sleeves looks really relaxed yet trendy, the perfect choice for a cool “casual Friday” outfit for the office. It looks great with classic shirts and skinny jeans, as well as with A-line skirts or pleated minis. Add some suede plumps or high-heeled ankle boots and you will look elegant enough for a day at the office, but also trendy enough to go out with your friends for afterhours dinners or parties. Opt for leather-like contrasting sleeves and a slim fit cut – your arms will look thin and sleek, while the tailored silhouette will give a flattering feminine allure to your appearance.

Belted coat with wide lapels

If you want to highlight your waistline, there’s nothing sexier than a belted coat with wide lapels. The belt squeezing the middle and the lapels that balance out the upper body create the perfect hourglass silhouette that never goes out of style and always makes you stand out. Wear the belted coat with a tight fitting short dress and high heels pumps or ankle boots, so you can flaunt your elongated legs. Opt for a monochrome coat in a classic or neutral color (gray, black, beige etc.) with contrasting inner lining – this bicolored effect adds an effortless touch of style to any office outfit.

Boho long coat

A long coat is a must for the cold season, as you can wear it with both pants and skirts or elegant office dresses. The latest fashion trends draw attention to minimalist and sophisticated silhouettes, so look for a long coat with structured cut and straight hemline, as well as elegant shawl collars and classic single button fastening. Black or beige coats are the easiest to mix & match, but for the ultimate office look, opt for a boho colorful print that will add a touch of style and sophistication to any all black or nude elegant outfit!
