so I notice that in all of the photos your coats are open / unbuttoned--and they look very cool! but I'm wondering if there is an art to wearing/choosing/styling long coats so they look good when closed/buttoned

I recently bought a long wool coat and I can't decide whether to keep it or not--it's maybe too oversized, and looks okay when open but I feel looks quite frumpy when buttoned (which I will need to do soon because of weather constraints). would love to see a post with some tips on fit for long coats and some visuals for styling them closed or buttoned up for colder weather. thank you!!

This is another 'oh god' moment! I seriously have issues with coats, I have far too many! I am starting to really think about what works for me though - and that's partly down to following you for an age :)

I am still trying to work out what my three words are, but there is definitely 'punk' in there somewhere.

Keep the rest of your outfit simple when your coat is a statement piece. Pair it with neutral basics, sleek boots, and minimal accessories for balance. pantofisexy.ro

Is this an Ad? I come to Substack as there’s normally not many ad’s, unlike Instagram

Yep - there's a disclosure at the top of the post. I only ever partner with brands that I love and they are few and far between! x

How about adding a cool pin?! I just got a funky one that I am planning to try out on one of my coats.
