With the cool winter breeze and snow kicking in, your hunt for the perfect winter wardrobe and how to wear it still remains. But do not worry; we are here to get that sorted.
We have all the do’s and don’ts for the fashion scene this season, so let’s get started! If there is one piece of clothing you buy this winter, make it peacoat. With its absolutely classic look and practicality, there is no reason why you should not include it in your closet.
Here’s a brief insight into what a peacoat is and how it all began. It dates back to when sailors in the army used this coat as a source of protection from the extremely unpredictable and harsh climate and later it became their uniform. The blue-colored peacoat signified their association with the navy. It is mostly double-breasted (although not always) with big buttons and lapels. The length may vary but it is usually short.
Styling Tips
If you were to ask what’s the best part about a peacoat, we would say its versatility. The fact that you can turn it around from casual to formal so easily makes it very useful. So whether you need something to slide into on a day of chores or an impressive outfit for business meetings, you’re completely covered. Not only is it super stylish, it will also keep you warm on the coldest of days. Here are a few things you need to keep in mind before wearing one:
- Make sure it is not too long, otherwise, that will turn it into an overcoat
- The fit can make or break the look, so choose wisely
