Why You'll Love a Colorful Winter Coat & The Best Finds Now | Spoiler alert: you can totally wear bright colors, and choosing a colorful winter coat this year will help make winter more fun! Shop the best coats, from cute faux fur to the warmest…

I’m a lifelong fan of both winter and fashion - give me all the cozy weekends at home, hot chocolate, cold-weather travel capsules, and snow! Dressing for winter can get a bit boring around this time of year, feeling more like a chore (What’s the temperature, do I need a hat today?) than anything fun.

Why You’ll Love A Colorful Winter Coat

The most difficult part of owning a brightly colored coat is that you have to choose one to buy. There’s a rainbow of colors to choose from, and then you’ve got patterns and textures - wool, faux fur, plaid, floral…. It’s perfectly fine to take your time choosing because after that, your thinking is pretty much over.

For the rest of winter, you can throw your shiny (or fluffy?) new coat on as you head out the door, just as easy as buttoning up a basic black puffer. It barely matters what you’re wearing underneath - hello, coziest sweater and favorite jeans - because most people will never see beyond your coat.

And those people that see your colorful coat when everything outside is in grayscale for months? They will smile back at your sunny yellow coat, and more often than not they’ll pay you a compliment.

They’re not the only ones who will enjoy the pop of color - you’ll feel cheerier in your winter coat, too! In Aesthetics of Joy terms, you’re making a nice mix of Surprise (bright in a sea of grey) and Color (clearly). Adding in some pattern or visible texture is a recipe for even more fun. Can you see why I’ve been wearing my floral coat on repeat?
