Hello Loves!
Well it’s officially FREAKING cold! In fact as I write this the temperature reads -15°C, and through my peripheral vision I keep spotting odd looking ‘marshmallows’ walking down the street… I am now realizing that these candy creatures are actually people wearing multiple layers of coats.
Is there any such thing as winter fashion?
Before giving myself up to winter and becoming a marshmallow version of Randy (A Christmas Story reference) myself, I decided to add to add a new coat to the family, one that could actually survive the extreme Canadian winter.
Fun fact… I have never actually owned a winter coat! I normally brave the cold in 5 sweaters and a Levis jean jacket on top (you know for extra insulation).
I decided the perfect fit for me would be Montreal based company NOIZE Original coat, woohoo #shoplocal. NOIZE Original strives on the fact that they create stylish outwear for both men and women… something which is rare to find! I opted for the ELLA15-P1 and chose the colour charcoal mix to feed my love of all that’s grey.
My NOIZE Original coat currently the best and most popular item in my wardrobe… I am even wearing it during nights out, I can’t resist it, I don’t own anything else this warm or durable… and I mean it’s pretty stylish for a winter coat if you ask me… what do you think?
Coat: NOIZE Original Sweater: Kenzo Pants: H&M Hat: Indigo
Stay warm!

I know haha everyone thinks I am crazy… I am from England originally so we wore parkas which I kind of just had over here and layered under it, with my circulation cutting off every now and again… hahaha!! But now I am warm and happy. xxx
I love your coat! It might be cold but you sure look toasty and chic! I like how you styled this look with sneakers. Sneakers and jeans are totally becoming a “thing” again. Happy Monday!
Author
Thank you my darling… right?! I couldn’t be more thrilled by this fact, not only do my feet get to stay warm but comfortable too. YES!! xxx
Love the look! It’s hard to find a puffer that doesn’t look too built-for-the-elements, I’m loving this one!

I think I need your coat! I was literally eyeing up a coat like this on a guy the other day thinking ‘hmm, I wonder where I can get myself a women’s coat like that’. This one actually looks really cool too and I love the colour…*heads to the website*.

I do believe there is a such thing as winter fashion & you’re doing it quite well. I love how you styled this coat and the color you picked will go well with just about everything. The Kenzo sweater and ripped jeans worked so well together. I love your style not only do you look chic but your nice & warm too.

That’s a stunning coat! I love that it’s from a local company especially- I couldn’t imagine piling layers of sweaters to survive outside right now haha!

Thank you Lindsey, it is really hard work to pile on the layers hahaha my life is a lot easier now I just have to throw on this coat. Yes shop local! Hope your staying warm xxx
It looks perfect! I’m not a fan of coats that make you look like the Michelin Man, but your new coat is functional and fashionable. Nice pick, and I love the grey!

Thank you so much Vanessa, I am pretty obsessed with it so happy to finally be warm haha! Happy Monday xxx
I totally feel your pain with the freezing temps! I just braved a day in the city, after which the redness of my face made me look like I spent the day downhill skiing. Love that cozy coat, and the fur trimmed hood. Perfectly warm and chic.

I went without a heavy duty winter coat for quite sometimes until I found one that didn’t make me feel like a marshmallow. Hah

Can’t believe you’ve never worn a coat! Love the one you selected. It’s not too severe even though it’s a puffer coat. Plus I think the fur trim is so chic!

I can totally relate! I just bought my first winter coat at the end of the season last year and another at the beginning of the season this year. Before I would always wear thing, springy coats and freeze my butt off. I love this one – super cute and neutral, it won’t clash with your leg/footwear!
