New coat alert! I am so excited for this coat, I had to do my classic combination of leopard with stripes!

I mentioned I loved this Talbots leopard coat in my Talbots Fall 2014 preview and was so excited when they sent me one as a gift! This is more of a coat than an indoor jacket; it's the perfect choice over dresses, blouses and trousers, but I love how it glams up a classic weekend look.

It is a brushed finish; not fake fur but not a traditional cool coat. This is so elegant. I also love the collarless style; I want to style this in the future with a turtleneck. I also think this would look really good styled over a dress. What do you think?

This collarless coat's fuzzy texture adds an additional layer of interest. This coat is a size 12 Petite. It is lined and cozy enough for a brisk fall day. If you add a pashmina at the throat and leather gloves and it will be just enough until the weather gets frigid!

I've always been a fan of mixing leopard with stripes (see here and here). I would say that mixing leopard with stripes and adding a red lip is my signature style and something I can see myself wearing for years to come.

This is my current favorite red lip. Surprise, it is actually two colors – I start with Revlon Matte Lipstick in ‘Really Red' and top with Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in ‘Enticing.' This combination provides the shine I desire while also being quite long-lasting. I have had this lipstick last through my morning coffee and even Friday free donuts!
