Be sure to see our final installment of this series – Dress Coats and More.
I was so excited to see a TNA parka here because I also own one and I know Meghan is a huge Aritzia fan. It was a Christmas gift from a few years back and it is by far one of the warmest parkas I’ve ever owned. I think I tried every single TNA parka in the store (I am so particular about winter coats and how they fit) haha. It’s a bit heavy and not a lightweight coat but it sure keeps me warm when it’s below 40 degrees. I don’t own the same one as Meghan, they all vary and mine uses magnets in the coat lining to keep the zipper closure secure (so instead of buttons along the zipper, there are magnets I don’t know how to explain this well!). I also have magnets to keep the pockets closed too instead of zipper closures. I have never seen magnet closures used in coats before and dunno how common they are. But I highly recommend this parka if you’re heading to colder climates!
I especially love Meghan’s Club Monaco, Veronica Beard, and Mackage moto jackets they are all, so cute and so chic looking! She has such a good eye for stylish fashion moto jackets and coats in general.
So many great jackets in her closet! And there are more and more with each post. I love a good coat but I live in a much warmer area than London or Canada so sadly I dont get to break out a heavy one often. My favorites of these are the Smythe, the Madewell denim, the jcrew vest-thats such a comfy style outfit shes put together there, a staple in my fall/winter closet. And the leather jackets- love how they were styled with the dresses. Merry Christmas everyone!
