    Wear Flattering Coats This Winter (And Why We Can Make Snow Angels Now) - Petite Curvy Mom Style

    Published: Nov 8, 2012 · Modified: Nov 11, 2012 by Christina Dennis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · Leave a Comment

    We had a light dusting of snow yesterday (alright, it was a massive down-pouring that resulted in several inches of the stuff on the ground and school cancellations).

    Snow Day by The DIY MommySnow Day by The DIY Mommy

    It was the perfect weather for making snow angels (my little Canadian three-year-old has no fear when it comes to jumping right into big piles of snow)!

    The blustery weather got me thinking about my winter coat collection. I am admittedly a bit of a coat and jacket addict, and some of my very favourite winter jackets have been purchased from Modcloth. I've been browsing and pinning their latest selection this week, and here are some of my favourite winter jacket picks that I'd love to share with you:

    Cocoa and Waffles Coat

    The Cocoa and Waffles Coat
    reminds me of a country sleigh ride with a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter's night. I love big shawl collars like this, and the cinched sash and roomy peplum would be flattering on a petite curvy girl like myself.
    South Bank Stroll Coat in Goldenrod

    The South Bank Stroll Coat in Goldenrod
    is such a striking, military-style jacket in such a beautiful marigold yellow colour that's so trendy for this year. It would look great over a dress or jeans. It has a very tailored profile and a cinched waist also which would be flattering on any body shape.

    Pastry Date Coat in Apple

    The Pastry Date Coat in Apple
    is a beautiful, mottled shade of reddish burgundy (my pick for colour of the season) and it has a hood (which is cute and practical for winters like the ones we have up here)! The look is structured, but not stuffy.

    Amateur Astronomer Coat

    Finally, the Amateur Astronomer Coat
    is such a classic piece with a twist - it's in a classy navy colour and a classic peacoat shape, but it has a large folded collar that I think is so adorable.

    Which winter jacket should I choose? What do YOU look for in a winter coat?
