You start the new year in full swing, ready to conquer what’s to come. A new spirit and a whole lot of enthusiasm fill your heart. But you need to have a suit of armor to take on the world. An iron-clad wardrobe will help you pick out amazing outfits every single day, and when you look good, you feel good—one of our favorite feel-good items in the wardrobe is outerwear. Coats and jackets are unparalleled when it comes to elevating an outfit. No other piece can do it quite so effortlessly. It may just be one layer, but it adds a ton of style. They can single-handedly transform a basic outfit. Take an all-white look, for example, a simple white tee and chic white trousers—add a sleek, longline white coat for a sophisticated look. Team it with a quilted puffer jacket for a hip, street style outfit, or pair it with a leather jacket for an edgy vibe. One outfit but three different looks, all thanks to outerwear!
