After a particularly horrible (weather wise) NYC week, the weather apps are calling for clear skies and (only slightly cringe-worthy) temperatures in the mid forties. Do you know what that means? You don’t have to wear a raincoat! Or pack an umbrella! You can wear your fuzziest, wooliest, most anti-water overcoat without worrying about looking like a wet dog (though I always pack a mini umbrella for safe measures, suede ain’t cheap).
This weekend, tip your hat to the seventies with an outfit inspired by the decade of the “effortlessly chic” look—starting with this very model-off-duty wide-brimmed hat via Vince Camuto.
The fur-trimmed collar on this salt-and-pepper style tweed coat by DL2 screams seventies glam (all you would need is an awesome pair of aviators to land you on any best dressed list from the era).
A pair of jet-black, slightly flared jeans (like this pair from American Eagle) alludes to the era without looking like you’re stuck there (yes, we mean you, ladies that still sport “The Farrah” hairdo).
Top off your weekend look with a pair of wear-anywhere lace-up boots (like this Michael Kors pair),
and a cute pair of gloves (we like these polka-dotted ones from Topshop!) for one of the simplest ways to hit seventies style right on the record.
