4 Coat Outfit Ideas That Are the Fashion Equivalent of Comfort Food
I don't know about you, but one word dominates my thinking this time of year: cozy. I'm a sucker for all the cliché winter must-haves, from Christmas-scented candles to sweaters for my dogs. If any of this sounds familiar, you've come to the right place. I found a few great coat outfits that are about as warm and cuddly as it gets.
Two of these outfits, for instance, feature different coat trends worn over sweatsuits—a very popular combo indeed. Cushy accessories are also key in the outfits I chose. Specifically, bright-colored beanies and oversized scarves are chic and will keep you as snug as a bug. Scroll down to shop 4 of my favorite coat ideas that are the fashion equivalent of comfort food.
1. Sweater Coat + Sweatsuit
2. Oversized Scarf + Olive Coat
Maria Mallol's high-quality mohair scarves are made by expert weavers in Spain.

4. Teddy Bear Coat + Sweatpants
Yes, you can wear sweatpants with any kind of shoes—loafers included.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
