Fall Must Have

Bright Coat


WHY I LOVE IT: This is normally where you lean toward neutral, right? Yet, as the only garment this season where colors pop with a fruity vivacity, the belted coat is fall's wardrobe punch-up, eye-catching without extravagance.


HOW TO WEAR IT: Don't put up any competition. Black, navy, or beige underneath is how to best highlight these coats. Work that belt—keep it tied. It creates a V shape between the wide lapels that's a stunning face-framer wherever you go.


Affordable option pictured below (since those pictured above are Versace and Alberta Ferretti): Esprit Wool coat, $190; visit esprit.com for stores.
