Happy December lovelies! It’s hard to believe the holidays are here as well as the brisk cold weather! We’re actually having snow flurries as I write this blog post!
I personally don’t mind the cold as soon as I can wrap myself in a cozy long coat, and a furry one that is!A faux-fur coat also called a Teddy bear coat, is a winter chic essential that all Parisian women wear during the cold winter months.
It’s the perfect winter essential to throw over jeans or leggings for a casual look or simply over a holiday dress like I did when hubby and I went out for his high school reunion at the Cosmos Club, a private social club in Washington DC.
This particular faux-fur coat is from Zara; it also comes in beige. I linked a few similar styles in the Shop The Look below.
I simply love the lining and the cut of this coat. It’s not too oversized, not too long and the material is not too shaggy. I did try a longer oversized style and felt like I was skimming in it and knew I would eventually feel cold! I prefer my coats to have a snug fit 🙂
You can see how I styled this plush Teddy faux-fur coat in three different ways:
1. Holiday Sequin Dress – I will be sharing this dress exclusively in my next blog post.
2. Metallic Pleated Skirt – You can also see how I styled this skirt over the holidays in this blog post.
3. Spanx Leggings – This is my casual weekend outfit, perfect for running errands. I wore this outfit last weekend strolling our hometown.

A faux-fur Teddy bear coat is sure to give you that instant effortless cozy and chic winter look.
Hope your holiday season is off to a great start!
We decorated our Christmas tree and all the decorations in our house over the Thanksgiving holiday so we can now enjoy all the festivities! My daughter and I be attending the Holiday Tea at the Four Seasons in Georgetown next Saturday to benefit the Children’s National Hospital and we will all be celebrating Christmas in Québec City, Canada and already have some fun activities planned for the whole family!
Be sure to follow me on Instagram to see all the fun!
A bientôt ♥




This is such a cute/chic outfit and coat. 🙂
What a handsome couple! The coat is so elegant! And you wear it with flair!
Love the coat on you! It looks so stylish with the silver and black outfit. I received a rust colored teddy coat last year for Christmas, so Ill need to style it more on the blog. It is like a cozy blanket isn’t it!

This outfit is so French posh. A nice outfit for a holiday event. Love the Teddy coat. Thanks for linking your post to the party.
I adore that dress and it makes a real change from black sequins. Thanks for adding to the #linkup Jacqui x
Wow, this coat is fabulous! I always see these teddy bear coats in shorter lengths, but I really love the longer length of yours. So elegant and sophisticated but still soft and warm and cozy! Great styling, too. Thanks for linking up.
