I have a soft lilac/grey faux fur coat which I got from eBay a while back. It’s Whistles and nice quality and looks good but I need some inspiration on what to wear it with! Any ideas? I’m tall and size 8-10 if that helps.

Very much like the photo attached.

Slogan t-shirt, distressed jeans and pumps for a daytime look

Swiftier · 10/01/2019 10:08

Thanks, black blue or grey jeans? I mostly wear black jeans but think it’s maybe too harsh to a grey might be nicer.

I would vote blue distressed skinnies

Swiftier · 10/01/2019 10:38

Thanks, I’ve got some so will try them on. It’s too cold for pumps at the mo, not sure what boots would go as mostly have brown and black!

It's lovely. I'd wear it with everything Grin

planespotting · 10/01/2019 10:56

I know but I can't pull that off.
I used to be so stylish in my youth, then 😱😱😱😱

planespotting · 10/01/2019 10:57

I think if I was back to my smaller size (I used to run a lot) I could maybe pull something like that pff, maybe, with something like skinny jeans and short boots, ankle boots I think you call them.
And a Nirvana top (I am an 80s child)

Fashionista101 · 10/01/2019 10:58

Some black pleather pants, biker boots and a nice cashmere sweater(pretty much any colour but grey or pink would look nice)?

Fashionista101 · 10/01/2019 11:02

Ohhh @Fashionista101 I love those looks

Fashionista101 · 10/01/2019 11:18

I think you can wear pretty much any think with a nice fur coat and great shoes and look super stylish and like your outfits been thought about. Trainers and biker boots are my best friend at them moment!

Fashionista101 · 10/01/2019 11:22

Wow the typos! MUST PROOF READ!

Swiftier · 10/01/2019 13:57

Thank you all! Like the idea of skinny jeans and a band tee and ankle boots and also pleather trousers - I’ve got some ‘coated’ skinnies so think those and boots would toughen it up a bit!

I have one almost identical to that! I wear with coated skinnys, band tee and converse, docs or ankle boots with a heel. also looks nice with ripped mom style jeans, white tee and converse Grin

Swiftier · 10/01/2019 16:37

Thank you! Those sound like cute outfits!

I have a similar coat from the White Company, but more cream coloured and shorter. I wear it with absolutely everything! I've had it for two winters now, and really miss it when it gets too warm to wear it. I feel like it makes even the dullest outfit look instantly glamorous!

DontCallMeCharlotte · 10/01/2019 19:59

I have something similar to the picture but boxier - same "fabric" though. It will dress up (over cocktail dress) or down over jeans etc. I bought it maybe at least five years ago and wear it to death.
