ZARA Wool Coat
This light grey wool jacket is my everything right now!!! I have worn it easily 4 times since purchasing it last week, and without fail each time I wore it somebody would stop and ask me where it was from. Well, the secret’s out… it is from Zara!
Although it’s wool, it is fairly light weight, so it definitely won’t stand up to the cold weather we often have in January. However, this past week has been beautiful, so I have been taking advantage of it and wearing it non stop! I love pairing it with these All Saints booties for work or an evening out, but also with sneakers for a more casual weekend look. This coat will also carry me through the spring when it’s that weird, “not too warm but not too cold”, weather that is difficult to dress for.
The long sleeve is an oldie from Aritzia and the jeans are also ancient… I swear they’re at least 8 year old. I DIY’d the rips in the knees and cut the bottoms off to give them that little extra grunge look. I’m not going to lie, I impressed myself!

*The boots are from All Saints… I scored them in Vegas at the outlet store! I’m sorry I can’t find the link anywhere. The bag is Mackage and is currently sold out in black but is available in grey!
If you haven’t noticed, coats are kind of my thing… what’s your favourite thing to shop for?!

I was eyeing up that exact same coat recently haha, I need a light grey coat with a large lapel in my life so badly ! I have been craving one since December. I think it’s mostly due to the fact that I have been watching Scandal… if you watch it you will understand haha Oliva Pope is the queen of amazing coats <3 Anyways, love this so much !
XOXO

I love the coat! Just curious to know it fits true to size?
Thanks for sharing your blog. You have fantastic style – I’ve picked up a couple pointers that I’ve incorporated into my own wardrobe!

Thanks for the sweet comment Leanne! I am glad you’re enjoying following and learning something along the way 🙂
Yes, I typically wear a size extra small unless it is too short in the sleeve the I move to a small… this coat is an extra small and I find the sleeves to be the perfect length. I would say stick true to size!
Hope that helps 🙂
