Editors’ Picks: Plaid Winter Coats

We love us a classic navy or black pea coat for timeless protection against winter’s wrath, but occasionally it’s important to shock our style sense out of hibernation with a big wooly statement piece.  With the unfortunate exception of NFL team logos, scarves and hats are typically the default focal point of color for winterwear.  It’s time we let our stylish winter coats have some of the limelight instead.

Splurge: 3.1 Philip Lim Plaid Coat in Charcoal (Left: $895).  Steal: Uniqlo Wool Pea Coat in Dark Green (Right: $99).
