My favorite piece of clothing to wear right now is the duster coat! It literally goes with anything. I could even put it on over some dusty sweatpants and t-shirt and BAM!! Instant fashionista! I usually wear black coats, especially to work, but lately I have been enjoying colored coats. Colored coats can sometimes be tricky to style, but if you do it right, it looks amazing!

Here are three ways to style a colored coat.

Match Coat With Your Top

When deciding a wear a colored coat, most people go for the monotone look (where the whole outfit is the same color as the coat. As much as I love a monotone look, I adore how your outfit looks just as clean and chic by just matching your coat with your top. Plus, its much easier to do!

Match Coat With Your Bottom

Coordinating your pants or skirt with your coat gives you the same feel as a suit outfit without the seriousness of an actual suit. This outfit fits at the workplace just as much as at a bar with your girlfriends. Swap the flats for a pair of chic heels and you’re set for a ladies night!

If All Else Fails, Wear Denim

For those instances where you want to rock a coat with an standout color, what better way to style it than with a head to toe denim outfit! With colors like green or pink, you may not have a matching top or pant to go for the style techniques mentioned above. But everyone has a pair jeans!! Don’t have a denim top? No problem! Put on a white top and you are still just as stylish!
