The Affordable Coats Our Editors Are Buying to Look Expensive
A chic winter wardrobe might seem like it costs more than a summer one (hey, you have to wear more clothing when it's cold), but it's also easier to look expensive in winter than in any other season. The reason? Outerwear. No matter what you're wearing, throw a nice coat on over it and voilà, your outfit looks 10 times more expensive. But not just any coat will do. We always make an effort to shop for expensive-looking outerwear that's not going to blow our budget for the season in one fell swoop. If that's your MO for winter as well, we're here to help.
Us editors, each basically shopping experts in our own right, named our favorite affordable coats in an effort to inspire your next outerwear purchase. Each of these options looks truly expensive and will, in turn, make your entire outfit look expensive. Keep scrolling to shop our picks, all of which will keep you warm and make you look more stylish this winter.
"The faux-fur trim on the collar and cuffs make this coat feel so luxurious and special, as if it were a rare vintage find from the '70s.""I have a theory that a biker jacket makes any outfit look infinitely cooler, so I'm putting it to the test with this shearling-lined version. I have my eye on the ecru color, which I can already imagine will go so well with winter neutrals.""Every season I pretty much wear my camel coats to death. In other words, it is definitely time for a new one. This affordable slouchy version from Topshop has that expensive-looking color I always hunt for with just the right length.""I am really into leather jackets that aren't motorcycle jackets. This big blazer-coat hybrid is what I plan on wearing all season long.""I always hit up ASOS when I want a statement coat that looks expensive. This plaid silhouette is sophisticated and so versatile.""The blush-colored accent on the sleeve makes this gorgeous camel coat feel even more special.""I love the blanket-like quality of this checked, fringed coat. It feels trendy and timeless at once.""I love an all-black outfit, and the idea of styling this long, oversize teddy coat with black jeans and ankle boots every day this winter is really appealing.""I already own a cropped faux-fur coat, but this winter, I would like to invest in one with longer proportions. Since chocolate brown is a color on the rise, this one from Mango is topping my must-buy list.""A long leather trench is the perfect option for those of us who live in warmer climates (like L.A. where I'm based) where a heavy winter coat is rarely needed.""This is my favorite coat purchase of the fall season so far. I'm still floored at how incredibly luxurious this super-soft suede trench coat feels. While it's definitely on the more lightweight side (too thin for freezing winter temps), it's absolutely perfect for the pleasant autumn season. The hue is gorgeous—a rich khaki brown that will go with everything in your closet.""I'm seriously in love with Zara's cape coat. It has major Celine vibes without the hefty price tag. Plus, it looks super posh, expensive, and dramatic.""Yes, I'm aware this is more of a jacket than a coat, but I'm currently sweating it out in 80-degree heat along with the rest of Southern California. Plus, this is roomy enough to layer a super-chunky warm sweater underneath. House of Sunny is my favorite British brand for on-trend, affordable pieces, and this quilted jacket is at the top of my list.""I'm really into tweed right now (see proof here), and this Mango coat is my next victim. I'll be styling it with a white turtleneck and wide-leg jeans.""This coat literally goes with everything in my closet, so thanks to that, how cozy it looks, and the under-$200, I'd buy it in a second.""This cool trench is exactly what I want to be wearing on a rainy winter day. The checked collar is such a good touch."
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
