Winter is in full effect in Oklahoma City. It has been in the teens this week, so my wardrobe is in winter mode. In the winter I tend to gravitate toward neutrals, but I still like to add a pop of color.
If you’ve followed my blog for a while, you know I am all about adding a statement element to each outfit. This is something I’ve noticed that I almost always do. I love to pull out colors that are in patterns or add color to an otherwise neutral look. That’s just what I did with this outfit.

My precious niece, Kimberly helped with pictures again
I ordered this fabulous black and white coat knowing it would be perfect for Christmas with a touch of red, and I knew I would wear it into spring/fall. It came right in time for Christmas and I’ve already worn it several times. My favorite way I styled it was adding a pop of red. Jake’s family gave me this gorgeous little red bag and I knew it would be the perfect with the coat (I am seriously so blessed that Jake’s family is so good to me!). After I got the bag, I came across these fun red booties while grocery shopping (#targetdoesitagain) and had to have them to wear with my new bag and coat. (I sized up ½ a size in the shoes, but recommend getting your regular size).
This coat is the perfect wardrobe staple piece. It is not lined, so I wouldn’t recommend it on days when it’s in the teens. It’s perfect for moderate winter days though (we have a lot of them in OKC). It will also go into fall/spring. It runs oversized, so for a more fitted look I sized down. Wearing all black underneath with a white top layer did create a little lint on the black, so I recommend using a lint roller inside of the coat before leaving the house.
Since the coat is neutral, there are endless ways to style it. I can also see it being styled with all black for a chic look or with pink for Valentine’s Day. I love this coat so much, so I am sure it will be on the blog again!
We are headed to Denver tomorrow. If you have any suggestions on what to do, please comment below!

Thanks, Marieta! Omg I know, I basically did a double take when I saw them. They look like the Steve Madden Verizon.

Loving your style! My favorite outfit is always a black/white with a pop of color! You nailed it!
Thanks, Jen. I am all about a pop of color 😊
Yes that Red is Sexy. I love that pop of color. I would either do Red or Hot Pink they both are so spicy lol.
Thank you 🙂 Yes I am a HUGE fan of a pop of pink. I just got that little red bag, so I am super into red right now. The shoes come in pink too. I will probably end up with them too lol. #shoppingaddiction
I’m a super fan of black and white with a pop of red! You look lovely!
Thank you, Jessica! I hope you have a lovely day <3
Hi Courtney, the coat is amazing and does really pop for this time of year! those boots are so cute too. When you style boots and bag with everything else it gives you a very chic look. such a lovely necklace too to go with it. Your niece is such a cutee! I am looking forward to the HUGE announcement to come , enjoy Denver , you can put it in my shop window for a future trip, take care dear, hugs, Terri xo.
Thank you so much, Terri! I had so much fun with this look. When I saw the coat I knew I had to have it, but wanted to style it with color to make it more “me.” I am really obsessed with red right now for winter, so it’s my go-to. I look forward to it too 🙂 I hope you have a blessed weekend and I will be back to blogging after a week off 🙂
