There is something casually sophisticated about an oversized coat, especially in pastel shade. Fresh off the runway, with exaggerated proportions and wide-set shoulders it is an ideal spring layering device. You might say pastels are just for spring wear, but they are not anymore. We have seen so many pastel wool coats as a part of winter street style outfits, even as a compliment to the evening formal dresses. In spring, wear your candyfloss-coloured coat with tailored pantsuit and women’s brogues for a modern take on a tomboy dressing.
