As I mentioned in my last post – I’m really loving red pieces this Fall. And while I’ve usually been quite conservative in my outerwear choices – I think I’m finally ready for a bright red coat!
I picked up this lipstick red coat at JOE FRESH. It’s a fun balance of lady-like and modern. The collar and length are classic, while the extra pockets and the zip fastening add an unexpected (and convenient!) twist. I especially appreciate zip closures in outerwear – who has time to button and unbutton multiple times?

And if you’re wondering why I’m wearing the coat on my shoulders as a cape – I promise you, it’s not a blogger cliche. When the weather is cold but not freezing, wearing your coat on your shoulders adds just the right amount of warmth – without making you sweat (TMI, I know!). Give it a try – you might love it!
Would you wear a red coat or is it too Little Red Riding Hood for you?
DISCLAIMER: I purchased the coat with a giftcard provided by JOE FRESH

Love your coat. What a classic and fashionable outfit.Sharonhttp://www.afashioncrowd.blogspot.com
Thanks Sharon!
Love this look! What size are you wearing? Does this coat fit true to size?
Hi! I'm wearing an XS, and I've found JOE FRESH outwerwear to fit slightly larger – I would say their XS is comparable to an Old Navy S?
Red looks amazing on you!!www.nellecreations.com
Thanks Jenelle!
OMG The colours along with the leaves etc are so gorgeous!Jabeen xhttp://www.spilling-the-beans.co.uk/
Thanks Jabeen – it's such a pretty time of the year!
Super cute outfit. This is totally something I would wear. From the Hunter boots to the lace top it's the perfect mix of functional and feminine. Love it!
Thanks Megan…I'm addicted to lace tops (and dresses)…am always on the lookout for the next one to buy LOL!
I bought a super cute short red trench on sale a few years ago and it is one of my favorite fall coats to wear!! I really love yours as well. You look beautiful as always! ❤️
Thanks Lindy! A red trench sounds so cute <3
You look gorgeous! Red definitely suits you and is your color. I also love your lace top! I bought one from F21 but had to return as it was a horrible boxy fit. I'm still looking!
Thanks Noelle – it's funny that you'd say red is my colour…before blogging I'd never wear red lipstick let alone red clothing – I used to think it was too "loud" for me…funny how things change!
I love the red with the white sweater! And I would definitely wear a red coat. In fact, it's on my wish list for this fall!
Thanks Jenn! Hope you find a cute red fall coat!
Love this coat! Beautiful! Natasha (Livinlifewithstyle.com)
