La’Dan’s, I Love You

Sophisticated coats, as you know, are not easy to come by for the woman of size. I usually buy one or two vintage ones each winter (lightweight, since I’m in Florida) and wear the heck out of them, dry clean, and then start again with a new one the next season (with the older ones in a less frequent rotation). This is harder to do when you want specific silhouettes and quality tailoring, like my insane urge for cloaks and capes.

Cue the frolicking: I had totally forgotten about La’Dan’s Closet, which stocks great coats up to 5X. They’ve got inspired designs, multiple color options for each style, and full linings, so you can buy one and wear it season after season. Fancy that. If you usually spend a couple hundred on a coat you don’t wear as often as you’d like, then it wouldn’t hurt to scrape together a little more if possible to buy something incredible. My favorites include the Long Vintage Cape, shown, and the Eye Spy. Time to save up my pennies!
