18 Colorful Winter Coats to Keep You Warm in Style
After some unseasonably warm temps, winter is back at full force, which means it’s once again time to pile on those layers. Enter: your rotation of trusty knits, over-the-knee boots and bulky, cold-weather toppers that may or may not make you look like a marshmallow in disguise. But to be honest, bulk is way less of a concern than color. A brightly colored coat or one with a striking silhouette is stand-out-from-the-crowd material, but a coat with zero pizzazz? Cue the winter blues. Nail a bold and cheery winter look in one of these 18 statement-making coats that will combat the elements in style.
