Winter Coat Trends
Winter coats- you can’t live with ’em, you can’t live without ’em. Wait a minute- that phrase doesn’t really work well, does it? Either way, the cold winter weather calls for heavy coats that will get the job done. For me personally, finding winter coats that keep me warm, look stylish, are in my price range and don’t make me look like a marshmallow can be hard.

Pale pink coats
The girliest of girly-girls will love that pale pink is a hot color for winter outerwear. A pale pink, also sometimes referred to as blush, is almost a neutral, so it will mix and match with a variety of other colors in your wardrobe. I particularly like the look of pale pink and gray. Whoever said you can’t wear pastels in winter was clearly wrong.

Bell-shaped coats
I’m a big fan of the bell-shaped coats for fall and winter, mainly because they accentuate my thin waist and add curves to my bottom half. Win-win! I love how girly they are, too. You may also see this type of coat referred to as “fit and flare” coats. How Kim Kardashian of them.
Vince Camuto Wool Blend Military Peacoat / Old Navy Wool Blend Military Style Coat / GUESS Faux-Fur Military Coat
Military coats
Whether they are the distinct army green or just have military details like buttons or patches, these coats are on-trend. I personally love the vintage feel of the ones above. If you think the military style is too rugged for you, add some feminine accessories like a fun scarf or pink lipstick.

Faux fur coats
The key here is “faux”, since I don’t really want to be walking around with a real rabbit on my chest (but that’s just me). Faux fur coats just look and feel luxurious to me, even if they are under $100 (props to you if you can find one that cheap!)
Love the pink and fur coats, a part of me wish it would get cold enough here to wear coats.
I definitely don’t like the marshmallow effect, so I definitely lean towards coats in bright colors!
I kind of love all of these coats. I love the pink ones and the fur. I have a coat obsession since I hate being cold! I have so many.
I typically go more military or classic in my winter coats but I LOVE the pale pink options. Especially the middle one. I’m not a huge pink person so I’m actually surprised by how much I like it.
The pale pink ones are so pretty and girly!
I love bell shaped coats and of course, faux fur is always my friend! Great picks!
Can I have one of each kind!? Love them all.
i love the pale pink trend and really want to add one to my closet…maybe after my christmas bonus? and i did invest in a nice faux fur coat last winter and am so glad i did…i love it!
I’ve turned into such a coat fiend- I’ve bought several this year; there are just too many styles I’m loving right now. You did a perfect job of curating the trends! 🙂
I love the idea of the pale pink coat but….I am pretty rough on my coats it seems! Sad face. Basic black for me.
Military and faux fur are my favorite trends for coats! Great picks!!
I love the look of the pale pink coats, one of those may be next on my must-have coat list.
I sometimes wish it got a little bit colder in the southeast so I could justify buying more heavy coats. That first pink one is amazing!
love the coat options, rachel! still yearning for a pink one!
Baghgh That pink J. Crew coat is so pretty!!! I have been obsessed with all things pink lately. And love any military inspired coat. THey are so cool! xoo
I love the military style! I am in serious need of a good coat or I’ll never survive these Chicago winters. Thanks for the great ideas!
I plan on wearing my faux fur jacket to death this winter!
I’m in need of a new winter coat! Love the bell shaped options! I like that it creates a bit of shape on the body.
I love pale pink coats lately! I am dying for one myself!
I love coats in general, always! I really want a plaid coat and a pale pink coat right now. Oh and faux fur…
Loveee the faux fur!
It’s like I can’t have ENOUGH faux fur in my closet. ASOS is dangerous (and their Cyber Mon sale goes through 12/4). I’ve been feeling blush tones for winter this season, too… Great picks, girl!
Mmmmmmmm…..yes, all pink everything please! Love these! xx
Bell shaped is my favorite, so flattering!
LOVE that we were on the same wavelength today!!! Blogger ESP! 🙂 And gimme one of each of the fur coats!!! In love!!
I’m in desperate need of a winter coat! Love these options Rachel! Something about the soft pink this season speaks to me:)!
I love these winter coats. I just found a gorgeous bell shaped coat from Burlington Coat FActory. I got a great deal on it and it is so flattering!
