You already know I’m crazy about Winser London from my recent post. I thought I’d briefly revisit the red coat for two reasons. First, it is on sale! Second, so many of you in real life and online have admired this coat, so I thought I’d show it styled up instead of down, like I did in the previous post. I’m wearing this on repeat in this mild winter. As a girl who is kind-of-but-not-really tall, I really appreciate its elegant length and proportions. Since it is on sale, I might have to have the black version as well…
As I’m going with a vaguely 1980’s red and black theme with this outfit, it made sense to wear these ladylike tasselled Louboutin ‘Gwalior’ heels. My previous pair of black suede heels died after 6 years of heavy wear, but they were SO comfortable and worn in that I hated to part with them. I interviewed a lot of heels for the opening in my closet, and these won. They don’t look very comfortable, but they are nicely balanced and surprisingly easy to wear.
What are you wearing on repeat lately?

January 10, 2016 at 5:00 PMDear Lisa,
I’m so delighted by your blog – You bring the best items. I have been searching for a coat that was sweater-like but could hold it’s shape and now, I have the black coat on it’s way to me.
And good news for your US readers, even though the shipping is hefty, it’s still less than the VAT you won’t have to pay 🙂
Thanks again you fabulous babe!
Lisa
January 10, 2016 at 5:06 PMOh Vivian, I’m SOOO pleased! I adore this coat; you can’t imagine the mileage I’ve had out of it (hence my desire for the black one). That’s certainly a good point about the VAT and shipping… maybe I should start having things shipped to my mom!! You’re so welcome; enjoy it. I wish you well to wear it (on repeat, like I have). xx

Got a call from Aramark Customs …the coat comes with an additional 30% in customs duties; so no bargain on VAT 🙁 Still a very decent price.

January 20, 2016 at 7:59 PMUGH! That’s a real drag. I hope you are as thrilled with yours as I am with mine! xx

January 22, 2016 at 2:19 AMIt arrived today and is the loveliest embrace of a coat. Love the weave/knit; weight and line.
And that little bit of kid leather as your hand breaches the pocket… as kiss on the hand <3
I'd kill for this in teal.
thanks again for a great find
xx

January 11, 2016 at 2:22 PMOh, this ensemble. The gorgeous red coat with the red underbellies on the shoes peeking out. And there’s some perfection about this red. Vibrant but not bright? Could a short gal wear this lovely coat, do you think? My 5’2″ self loves long.
And write on, darlin’. You make us happy. You make us think differently.
Lisa
January 11, 2016 at 3:04 PMThank you, Jan! I’m sure a short gal could wear this coat if you like long (I sure do). It IS on sale! xx

January 11, 2016 at 3:23 PMYou look so fantastic in that shade of red!!
On repeat for me lately: faux leather leggings. I have both suede and shiny versions. They are Ann Taylor, but look much cooler with the right ensemble.
Lisa
January 11, 2016 at 3:40 PMThank you, Cynthia!
Faux leather leggings… now there is a hole in my wardrobe that I didn’t realise I had! I have faux leather skinny jeans and overalls, now I need some leggings! I can see how with a big sweater they’d be a perfect On Repeat item for winter. xx

January 11, 2016 at 4:10 PMAfter having seen this beauty in person – both the model and the coat – it’s definitely a must on my list! The quality- just amazing! Not to mention the shoes of course. Beautiful pictures as usual! xx Abby
Lisa
January 11, 2016 at 4:15 PMAwwww, thanks Miss Abby! It would be super on you. xx

January 11, 2016 at 5:50 PMYou look fantastic. I think there is nothing better than a red coat to cheer up the winter blahs.
Lisa
January 11, 2016 at 6:32 PMThank you Audrey. Red seems to make everything better. xx
Lana
January 12, 2016 at 6:05 AMYou are gorgeous in red. And your new suede heels are perfect – I love the tassel detail.

January 13, 2016 at 1:22 PMYou’ve got it going on! And I do appreciate how very thoughtful and deliberate you are about each and every addition to your wardrobe. I love your savvy approach.
Lisa
January 13, 2016 at 1:55 PMThank you, Mithra. I tend to overthink everything, and my wardrobe is no exception, lol! Aside from that, I just hate waste, so I only buy things I know I’ll get mileage out of. xx
