Have you ever owned a coat so beautiful, you were reluctant to take it off once you’d gone inside? Us too, so we decided to find several ways to properly celebrate this year’s best outerwear. From a floor-length duster to a pastel fluffy jacket, winter’s most showstopping toppers deserve to be worn often and well. We styled a selection of the season’s best in a variety of ways. Click through for inspiring ideas sure to shake up your cold-weather wardrobe.

Printed Jacket
Get on board with the mod trend by choosing a cropped, printed ski jacket. Play up the retro vibe by teaming it with an A-line skirt and patent boots. Pictured Jacket: Prada
Printed Jacket
For a more casual spin, balance the bold print with wide-leg jeans and serious pumps.
Fluffy Jacket
Glamorous, fluffy jackets shouldn't be saved for evening. Pair a baby-blue style with a louche sweater and faded denim for a great off-duty look.

Furry Vest
We love a furry vest to keep us toasty (and make a serious style statement). Wear under an oversized parka to add a dose of glamour to an otherwise classically rustic ensemble. Pictured: Denis Basso Vest

Floor-Length Duster
A printed or embellished duster coat is an unexpected choice for day. Bring it into casual territory by layering a denim jacket underneath as a shirt.
Floor-Length Duster
Up the ante for evening by belting your duster as a dress. Add vixen heels, a studded clutch and teardrop earrings. A shiny ponytail and blood-red pout complete the look.
Striped Overcoat
Play up this collegiate style with a nubby knit scarf, grey jeans and metallic sneakers.

Juxtapose the striped menswear-inspired coat with a glam evening gown in red satin and prepare to turn heads when you arrive at your black-tie affair. Pictured: Michael Kors Slip Dress
