Snow?! Yeah, I shot this look a few weeks ago and realised I should probably share it now, considering how quickly the seasons are changing over! It seemed to start shifting almost immediately as the month of March kicked in, and I'm hugely grateful because I think the constant dreary weather wasn't doing my mood any favours. Anyway, while in a kind of 'go big or go home' mood, instead of dressing down an outfit to allow one statement piece to stand out, I tried mixing them together - a celebration of loud pieces, I guess! Speaking of which, I've developed a whole new love for cardigan coats (
totally the unsung hero of our wardrobes), and never more so than when they contribute to a bold look without taking any of the 'magic' away.

The red piping is one seriously gorgeous addition to this cardigan coat, and has 100% got me thinking about the other options out there. So,
sure Spring has pretty much sprung, but for the next few weeks when we're still waking up uncertain of whether we need umbrellas, sunglasses or snow boots... cardigan coats are a pretty good option!
Have a great week ahead!
With love,

Such a lovely coat! I adore the red piping and your booties are super cute. I am so looking forward to the warmer weather...it really needs to hurry up, today is really cold and windy.

you're so right! Cardigan coats can be such a life safer, especially when the seasons are changing. They can be such a great way to add a statement to our look. Speaking of which, this coat is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThe golden midi skirt and the top are wonderful items as well...and that bag is so cute. Such a well put together look. You look divine!!!!
Snow? We have rain today but yesterday it was so sunny that I really can't complain. I can live with a few rainy days, especially when I know that Spring is finally here.

Cardigan coats are definitely a great option right now, especially as the weather is a bit all over the place. Yesterday seemed to be quite warm but today has been non-stop rain. I love the red piping on this coat too and think it gives it a bit of a royal feel! x
ReplyDeleteThis cardigan coat is amazing on you! Plus it's so chic!

Girllllll we NEED to talk about that bag because it's SO dreamy! Love a cardigan coat; I have one that I bought last year from Zara which is kind of a cardigan/dressing gown style and it's SO comfy!

While we are certainly moving towards Spring now, I reckon you'll still get plenty of use out of that gorgeous cardigan coat of yours Gabrielle - especially if typical British weather is anything to go by! The red piping most certainly makes this garment - it's the perfect finishing touch!

ReplyDeleteThe silhouette of this coat is totally marvelous and the red piping and metal button details just take it over the top! I'd say going big worked out really well for you in styling this look Gabrielle :)
ReplyDeleteThe dreary weather has been getting to me lately as well. It's so good to see sun again! I adore cardigan coats because they're so cozy and can really elevate a look.

Ooh yes I love cardigan coats, they're so warm and definitely the perfect thing to wear when the weather is being as intermittent as it has been! Love the snowflakes I can see in these photos too, it takes me right back to winter. Love the flash of the gold on your skirt and the detailing on your handbag too. - Tasha

I am really loving this coat! It's quite military looking, and I love the navy blue colour. I was actually on the hunt for something similar last year, but couldn't find it. Dang it! Haha.

ReplyDeleteYou know what, I never knew cardigan coats were actually a concept :P I'd actually call it just a coat haha, but I can definitely see the cardigan side of it! Anyways, I love that coat - military coats are my favourite, the more they look like a Napoleonian coat, the more I like them! I remember Zara had quite a few different ones last winter. Styling this coat with the gold pleated dess was a great idea - even though they are two statement pieces, they work really well together and look just right!

Your coat is lovely! I love the red lining, it gives the coat a somewhat military and/or nautical feel. And above all else, it looks cozy! Of course the bag is also another lovely interesting piece.

I agree cardigans and cardigan coats are the unsung heros of our closet! I am normally quite chilly unless it's 40 degrees (celsius) out there, being from the Mediterranean hehehe, so cardigans are such an important staple in my wardrobe. The weather is crazy, but we can always count on our key pieces not to disappoint ;) You look fabulous!
