The 40’s Wrap Coat With Over The Knee Boots

lorna-burford-styling-buffalo-40s-coat

(Coat – Exact, Boots – Exact, Hat – Similar)

This is something extremely different for me, as I’m sure you can see, but I was asked to take part in a styling challenge called #LAStyleOff from Look Again, along with 4 other fashion bloggers. The idea was to style this 40’s inspired vintage camel coat by Buffalo in our own way and this is what I came up with. I took it in the smallest size, UK 6, and it has an oversized fit as you can see, but I thought pairing it with my DUO Dita Over The Knee boots and then a hat from Urban Outfitters (similar here) would be a good choice. Even though this is something I wouldn’t usually wear, I definitely like how it turned out! This coat has been featured on TV and also modelled by Stacey Solomon, so it’s extremely popular!

PLUS, WIN THIS COAT!

Want to know how you can win your own? All you have to do is ‘like’ the photo of me wearing it on Facebook and you will be in with a chance of winning it! Plus, liking the photo helps me win the overall styling challenge, so even if you don’t want to win it, it would mean a lot to me if you could like the photo anyway! You can do so by clicking here. The giveaway ends 10am Monday 17th November, UK time. I’d love to know what you thin of my outfit and how I styled this coat though!

    Wow! This is so cute! I don’t know if you have this show yet in the UK – Scandal with Kerry Washington? It’s AWESOME. I’m obsessed. Especially with the lead character’s style – which is EXACTLY like this outfit. MUST HAVE EVERYTHING IN IT!
