Cool Beans! Leandra Made Fall Coats with Veda

Do you ever feel like looking into your closet and trying to figure out what to wear is kind of like trying to spread expired jam on a slice of stale toast? The idea seems great, you know you like the foods, but the quality just isn’t there. Once in a while, there arrives a reprieve so simple you almost can’t believe it’s real and suddenly, with the implementation of a garment, or an accessory, or even just a witty styling tactic, your closet becomes a fresh bouquet of baguette, orange marmalade notwithstanding. It’s sort of the like the fashion item equivalent of a wellness retreat, one that brings you back from the dead/your fashion burn out.

You hated your white shirts, they were looking so off with every single pair of jeans before you found that Western belt but now? Now you’re a g-dang French Vogue editor.

And that blue and white polka dress? A personal assault to humanity at large given its dated scoop neck and uncoordinated hemline. But then! The perfect slides. And just like that, you’re a sun-kissed Nordic queen, vacationing in Croatia.

I know you don’t want to talk about it yet and frankly, neither do I, but the reality of the circumstance that lays ahead is such that one day soon, there will be a breeze. And with that breeze will come goose bumps and with those goose bumps will come the cognitive decision to quell them. That decision will inform what you put over your body and I’m just here to say: I have a great idea.

We’ve collaborated with Veda, leather jacket extraordinaires, to bring you a couple new exclusive styles of jacket for fall that are, in my opinion, two silhouettes every woman should have in her closet at least once. First, there’s the trench coat and then, there’s the military jacket. The trench coats come in classic khaki, army green and navy blue. All of which are replete with a satin sash because you are a pageant queen and congratulations! You’ve just won Best Dressed According to The Standards of Myself. The army jackets come in navy and green (both are shown in the slideshow above) and will, if nothing else, prove that you’re practically a baker. And you know what they about bakers, right? No stale toast. Ever.
