Why You Need a Statement Coat

15/11/2015fashion, how to wear over the knee boots, monochrome coats, osman alamo coat, oversized coats, statement coats

 
 

Do you want to know an inappropriate time to be wearing over the knee boots, a leather mini skirt, and an oversized coat? 8am on a Sunday morning. Which just happens to be when these images were shot. Walking down the high street of the area where I live in London, I couldn’t help feel slightly hooker-esque whilst watching the street cleaners wash remnants of bar-hoppers vomit off the pavements. But as they say, it’s all in the name of Fashun, Dahling. 


I picked up this incredible monochrome coat from H&M having painfully lusted after Osman’s Alamo, yet with a price tag of £1350, it was way out of the reach of any mere human being on graduate wages. This coat has now become known as the “Cruella de Vil” coat, for it’s Dalmatian-like pattern and glamorous supersizing. Statement coats instantly inject any outfit with a dose of chic.I can wear this coat with my gym stuff and it still manages to look really cool. It’s like magic. No matter what you’re wearing, a statement style has the power to perk up even the most basic of basics. It’s like what am I wearing underneath here? A dress? A t-shirt? The clothes I wore in bed last night? Who cares?! It doesn’t matter! This coat looks FAB and that’s all that really counts!

Here’s my edit of the best high street statement coats

    I feel like you need a statement item in most outfits, just to add a bit of attention and flare to an outfit!
    I love this coat!

Valentine’s Day: do you do anything for it (even Valentine’s Day: do you do anything for it (even a card, an acknowledgement of it) or do you just live it like any other day? It’s not something that bothers me really but I said to Jimmy “it would be nice to get some flowers though” - he replied by asking me when actually is Valentine’s Day. Lol. So... bets are on. Who thinks I’ll be getting flowers on Valentine’s Day 😂?

They’re about the only shoes I wear in spring summer. Until then, I guess I’ll be wearing them as slippers 🥴
