I don't know about you, but I'm ready for blue sky days with a slightly chilled breeze, apple and pumpkin picking, steaming beverages in cold hands, and cozying up on the couch for long Netflix binges. What else? I'm dying to start shopping for fall 2019 coats. There's always a certain excitement that comes with the changing of the seasons and for me, it's partly due to the clothes I get to pull out of storage and the new pieces I get to add to my wardrobe. Seeing as coats basically define cold weather style since they top outfits on the daily, I always treat myself to a new piece of outerwear every year. This season, the selection is especially good, which means hard decisions are going to have to be made during my fall shopping trip. (Is buying 20 coats socially acceptable?)
From long patent trenches and fuzzy fleeces galore to patterned cropped puffers and Saville Row-style pea coats, the outerwear that's currently on the market is as varied as it is drool-worthy. Trust me, it'll put your go-to black puffer to shame. Take a look at 20 of the best styles below, pick out your favorite, and prepare to become a total wrap star this fall.
I love a good structured menswear inspired jacket, and this plaid option is better than anything I could've imagined. It's gorgeous blue and yellow color palette make it feel fresh and unique, while its heritage textile and classic double breasted design champion classic design.
Cheetah print has been done time and time again, but I have yet to see it in cropped puffer form that's legitimately cool. Until now.
The pastel peachy nude hue of this coat is everything! Combined with its classic silhouette, it's understated cool at its best.
Trade your classic khaki trench in for a version completely cut from denim.
It's a gorgeous berry hue, it's quilted, and it's soft AF — what more could you ask for?
I mean, have you ever seen a fiercer trench? Boasting a patent purple snake print and belted silhouette, this coat is for anyone who wants to absolutely slay.
Everyone needs a cool blazer in their fall wardrobe and this one is among the best I've seen. Wear it with jeans and a tee like above for a smart yet casual look, or pair it with trousers and heeled booties for something a bit more elevated.
Because a fuzzy cheetah coat will never not be cool. Literally never.
Snag this coat and you'll be the most huggable person on the street at all times. And the coziest.
Another menswear inspired coat, another classic plaid to covet.
Pastel lilac for spring? Absolutely! Brighten up your fall look by opting for this sweet and cheery jacket.
Tough on the outside, soft on the inside.
You can never go wrong with a chic black collared trench coat. They're like the LBD of fall.
Can I wrap myself up in this and only emerge when spring 2020 hits? Thanks.
The most classic fall coat in its most classic color and form.
Sporty fleeces have been trending hard for the past few years, and this one feels especially cool thanks to its bright color palette.
From its faux fur hood and glossy brown hue to its external zippers and relaxed fit, there's nothing about this coat I don't love.
The perfect going out coat for when the temperature starts to drop.
High gloss plaid? Yes, please.
At $90, this faux fur coat is an absolute steal. The cherry on top is that its neutral color and boxy silhouette mean it'll go with literally everything.
