What's in YOUR closet? A winter coat that's a winner!
Football player padding, flange shoulders, oversized buttons, elastic waist bottoms and acidy colors - these are all signs that your winter coat is past its prime and could use a good updating. Opt for a classic pea coat or check out this duffle style coat with toggle buttons from Eddie Bauer. Like a good friend, these tailored styles in traditional colors will never go out of style. Or select a pop shade like red to perk up those winter blues. The dated look of huge shoulder pads and wedge silhouettes make a body appear larger.
