Statement Coats & Jackets

An investment piece for the spring season is definitely a statement coat.  It's a piece you will wear again and again all season long!  

Blake Lively wore this gold brocade Alice+Olivia coat on Gossip Girl.  I have since seen it pop up on eBay.

Anthropologie is having a great sale on the Adara Brocade Blazer.  Originally $398, it's marked down to $99.95 right now.

For a more classic and timeless look, a statement trench is a solid option.  Kate Middleton looks amazing wearing this Burberry coat.
