It's quickly getting colder out there and accordingly, the coats are quickly starting to sell out. I love coat season because you can wear anything (even a sweatsuit) but if you have on a great coat, your outfit will look amazing. The only downside of all of this is that coats aren't the cheapest of fashion items you can buy. Even among the more affordable brands, outerwear is typically the priciest category.
As you know, "It" items are usually designer, and that's just the way the fashion world works. But there are so many clothing brands of varying price points to shop that it's likely you'll be able to find something of a similar vibe that costs hundreds (or even thousands) less. That's what I'm here to help with. Keep scrolling for the 7 best designer It coats of the season, alongside a few that are just as chic because like it or not, winter is coming.
