These Coats Prove That It's What's on the Outside That Counts

Kate Middleton's powder blue Matthew Williamson coat is totally refreshing — so much so that it works as an outfit by itself. So it makes sense that Kate smartly let her jacket do all the talking when she headed outside.

Yes, Kim Kardashian likes to show a little skin every now and then, but when she covers up, she always gets it right. She's one star that has no shortage of chic wrap coats and crisp cover-ups, but we're especially obsessed with this heather gray number that gives off both elegant and casual vibes all at once.

The texture of Cara Delevingne’s gorgeous furry coat is played up by her leather pants and complemented by Kate Moss's tailored navy design. Together, the two prove they're one powerful duo — in modeling and in choosing outerwear.

Lately, Blake Lively's been all about trench cloaks and ponchos — and a lot of her looks are shoppable on her website, Preserve. One of our favorites has to be this Lindsey Thornburg design. It's not only eye-catching, but it's also totally warm — and those are two musts for any girl's outerwear.

Jessica Chastain's Michael Kors wrap coat is simply delicious. Paired with her orange locks and neutral accessories, the jacket screams "Fall" in the best possible way. Plus, Jessica gets the proportions just right, opting for a knee-length colorblock dress as the foundation to her look.

Victoria Beckham happens to be sporting her own chain-embellished design, but that doesn't mean there's a shortage of coats with unique added details. One thing's for sure: when your jacket has a little something extra, you'll have all the more pep in your step when you walk outside.

While Olivia Pope prefers neutral, tailored jackets, Kerry Washington allows herself to slip out of character on the street — and we don't mind one bit. Her Comptoir des Cotonniers graphic-print blazer jacket is a totally cool way to add oomph to an outfit, especially one that involves contrast prints.

We don't just love Alexa Chung's oversize blazer coat because it's plaid. We're obsessed with the ultrafuzzy wool-blend fabric that ensures a completely cozy walk. On that note, scroll through to shop similar styles that'll keep you bundled up in the best way possible.
