A Modern Twist on the Sailor Peacoat

3/3/2017

I personally believe that coats and jackets are more than just outerwear. They can help to further your look, and become a statement piece. I probably own around 20 or more (probably more) coats. I always purchase my coats at the end of season when they are practically being given away. If you have a Forever 21 near you, check out their 65% off clearance sale. I found a ton of coats to add to my collection and purchased all of them for under $10.00 each.

The core of this look was an updated version of a sailor's peacoat, purchased on clearance from Forever 21. This peacoat features gold, metallic accents throughout and is stitched with quirky appliques all over, including stars, lighting bolts and french fries. As too not diminish the standout effect of my statement coat, I layered it over a navy blue turtleneck.

Gold accents on the sleeves, mean you pair this coat with jeans, right? Wrong! I choose to pair my coat with a pair of coordinating, gold metallic pants from American Apparel. Remember, American Apparel is going out of business soon, so now is the time to stock up on your basics from their brand. To create a semi-sporty look, I added a pair of white Converse-like shoes, that also feature appliques, and were purchased from Gordman's (which I believe only exist in the Midwest).
