SEATTLE — With rain and wind happening on the daily, wearing layers of clothes is a must these days. Stylist Darcy Camden from Styled Seattle gives us a look at her favorite coats and boots for cold-weather style.
- MODEL RAIN RESISTER: Banana Republic Water-Resistant Classic Trench Coat ($228), Blondo Elvina waterproof boots in Natural Snake ($150) (Banana Republic University Village, Blondo.com). Floppy hat also from Banana Republic.
- UNIVERSAL COOL: Universal Standard Leeron Leather Moto Jacket ($425) and Porto Ankle boots ($250) (Universal Standard). Lexi Long Sleeve Rib Maxi Dress in Olive also from Universal Standard.
- COLD WEATHER COMMUTER: Eddie Bauer water-repellent Sun Valley Down Parka in Lt Nordic Blue ($179.40 sale, reg. $299) and OTBT Commuter Cold Weather Boots in New Mid Brown ($108.95 sale, reg. $158.95) (OTBTshoes.com). (Darcy's annual PSA: seriously consider getting a coat in a color other than black, especially if your commute involves walking outside. Please help motorists see you!)
- SLEEK, CHIC AND WARM: M.M.LaFleur The Padma Puffer ($245) and The Zelda Boot-3D Knit sock bootie ($395) (mmlefleur.com).
- Boots that give back: OLIVELA (Olivela.com) offers top quality, on-trend brand name and designer clothing and accessories and gives back 20% to the community in the form of educational support for kids in need. Darcy is wearing the Schutz Maryana Boot ($290), which provides 10 days of school (or equivalent). Every purchase supports a different cause that matters.
- Darcy’s DIY leather boot repair hack: Apply Vaseline on a terry cloth washcloth to boots as a way to treat and repair cracking leather.
