Seeing as how the showpiece color blocked I featured last week sold out within hours (it's similar to the sold-out Jaeger style above!), it may be wise to start considering next season's outerwear. Pronto. After all, it's something we'll be wearing all winter long (which, as we all know, is painfully long!), and it's the finishing touch to the daily outfit. This fall, it's all about the statement coat, and I've found a few eye-catching beauties: this all-weather faux fur trimmed , or this bold checked , this sleek leather-accented , this hunter green calf hair-trimmed , this rain-perfect Sam Edelman , this boxy wool , and this color-blocked .
