If there’s one thing I love most during the winter months, it’s oversized coats! This plaid number was a steal I found at Forever 21 on boxing day last year, and I’ve been obsessed. They didn’t have one in my size so I settled for a larger one and it worked out perfectly.

Considering the low cost of this coat, it turned out to be warmer than I expected it to be. Best of all, it’s black and white! I know I said I would add more colour to my wardrobe, but I may just stick to my dark routes for the winter season and brighten up come spring.

Speaking of colour, how chic is this red, blue and white coat my friend and blogger Natalie Ast is wearing? She grabbed it at a charity event in Ottawa and I’m obsessed. Also, loving those jeans. The perfect “off-duty” look!
