Pink trench Coat + brown combat boots

        My pink trench coat adds a pop of color to my all-red outfit thereby creating a sort of color block; deep saturated colors are trending, and Spring is here so, it's time to get out the colors. This post though is mainly about my combat boots. This brown Guess combat boots was thrifted a few years ago when I wanted to test out the combat boots trend; previously styled here. 

I liked the look and comfort of the boots so much that I went ahead and purchased a new pair from DSW blogged about here also styled in my previous post.here. Combat boot is a trend that will be around for a while and even if it is no longer a trend, it's the right kind of boots to have in a winter boots collection. Thanks so much for reading.

All Red Outfit: Red Wool Coat

       Red is the color for the month of February, symbolizing "Heart health month" and also one of  the celebratory colors of love for those who celebrate Valentine and of course, February is also Black History Month. Red is low key one of my favorite colors and my favorite way of styling it is by going the way of monochrome. 

I wore this outfit to Church last Sunday; a red knit dress, red wool coat and reddish brown leather boots to add texture to the outfit. I purchased the red wool coat from Metrostyle years ago and I currently love this olive color lapel coat here. The red sweater bag is an old thrifted piece. You can find similar knit or sweater bags on Etsy.

Spring Wish List

 

        My spring wish list has a somewhat green color scheme this season and that is because I have been drawn to the color green lately and also puffy sleeves which is a big trend this year by the way. The most expensive item on my list is this beautiful Bottega Veneta lido sandals but I'm not going to drop $1,500 on a trendy sandal. Thankfully, brands like Vince Camuto have the faux leather options at very affordable price points.

Houndstooth statement coat + Combat boots

 

       Winter calls for warm cozy coats and even better when the coat is also stylish too. This long gingham coat is that trusted piece for me. I decided to style it with a grey knit dress and combat boots for this post. The weather is starting to warm up and though it was sunny in this post, it was still quite cold. 

However, it's almost time to put away the winter coats but this piece would definitely be the last to be stowed away. And I have said it on here so many times, it was thrifted for less than $50 at a consignment store. How do you beat that? Hurray to sustainable fashion. Thanks so much for stopping by.
