OOTD – My military coat

Good morning butterflies,

I had been craving for some time for a miltary-style coat, and guess what, my darling mother in law spotted this one and bought it for me. 
I don’t need to step out of my comfort zone and opt for an edgy military look, because its soft fabric makes it suitable to be incorporated in one of my go-to everyday outfits. 

Here I’m rocking it over a soft mini-dress and baroque-print leggings. The only colourful addition to the all navy-blue ensemble is my Furla mini-bag and a multi-coloured tennis bracelet by Tatitoto. 

To give the outfit an elegant finish – I donned it on Easter Sunday for a family meetup – I chose nude patent t-bar pumps, which can conveniently be replaced by ballerinas or oxford lace-ups for an easier look.



*sorry for the mess with the pics formats*

Do YOU like military style? What’s your favourite way to wear it?

I wish you a blissful style into my favourite month of the year!

Lots of love

Coco
