I Want it Now: The Perfect Peacoat

In my neck of the woods, mild fall temperatures don't last for long. Despite the fact that it has been officially fall for only a handful of days, the mercury has dropped to nearly freezing temperature here. I've decided to begin my search for the perfect fall/winter coat early this year and these are a few of the coats that caught my eye this week. I haven't decided whether to go for a classic black peacoat or go for something different such as a bright colour or unique detailing. Any suggestions?

I had been looking for an olive green military inspired jacket for a while when I stumbled upon this one by Joe Fresh. I had seen their new commercial that showcases their fall line and knew I had to check it out in stores. This jacket was priced reasonably so I snapped it up in a hurry. If you're not familiar with Joe Fresh, it is an affordable line by Club Monaco's founder Joe Mimran and is sold at Loblaws stores in Canada. I threw together a casual outfit based on this jacket to run errands on Saturday, and it was the perfect jacket to wear on a crisp fall morning.
