The sophisticated look: Long coats for women

Long coats not only keep you warm from head to toe, but also lend your style an air of elegance and professionalism. That’s why long coats for women are the way to go for creating a totally sophisticated look. Here’s how to get the look:

The right coat:

Long coats for women made of wool, cashmere, or flannel are ideal for the sophisticated look. White or black coats can look even more stunning when worn with a wide waist belt. For a more classic look, opt for a gray, double-breasted coat. This look isn’t just confined to the winter months either! Trench coats, rain coats, frock coats, and over-sized long coats all go hand-in-hand with this refined look. Just stick to clean designs without frills and you can’t go wrong!

The right top:

Choose from long, silk blouses, tops with sashes or made from starched cotton, opulent collars or eye-catching lapels. If you prefer t-shirts, designs made of Jersey, silk or cotton are all fair game! Sweaters with color gradients or simple colors like anthracite, black or navy also complement this look. We recommend opting for modern, unique styles with an intellectual touch.

The right pants:

You can go for a well-ironed, tight pair of pants with pleats or a straight-leg style, a well-cut pant suit or jeggings with design patterns, unique lines, and attached pockets. Your pants should be of a particular length, such as just above the ankle or completely covering your shoes.

The right handbag:

Leather handbags with sturdy shapes and rounded corners are a definite hit, as are braided leather clutches with a wrist strap or box bags with decorative clasps in exotic colors.

The right accessories:

Sunglasses and prescription glasses with large, elegant frames that aren’t too bold are a great choice for adding some pizazz to this lovely look. Mix and match jewelry such as statement necklaces, leather bracelets, and ear cuffs to lend the look more personality. Round the look off with a designer silk scarf with printed illustrations.

The right shoes:

Slip on a pair of sleek high heels in warm, understated colors or opt for a more comfortable option, such as creepers, pointed-toe ballet flats, monk strap shoes or slip-ons. Whatever you choose, make sure the shoes have a smooth or shiny surface.

Long coats are the final touch for a successfully sophisticated look. Simply choose your favorite option from each of the categories above and you’ll soon be holding rank with the likes of Grace Kelly, Jackie O, and Meryl Streep. When in doubt, opt for clean shapes and cuts. Remember: Less is more!

No matter how short the dress, long coats for women will keep you warm from head to toe!
