Buffalo Check Coat

buffalo plaid, check, coatI have had this Buffalo Plaid peacoat for a few years. It is one of those items in my closet that while I don’t wear all the time anymore but still love to pull out when I need a change.

In fact I had to talk myself out of buying a red peacoat because I feel like it might be a bit redundant with this coat still in rotation.

I actually try to avoid wearing this coat with my Sorel boots or any sort of trapper hat because well just picture it.

But with the amount of snow I have to walk through everywhere it is just the most practical option. Don’t even get me started on bare ankles in December.

Totally understand your struggle between snow or cute boots, and usually snow boots win for me, Toronto weather is just that cold! You look great, the coat is lovely and goes so well with stripes!

Thank you so much! I know most of the time snow boots win for me too.
