Cardi B’s $9,200 maxi coat is the cold weather inspiration you need this season
The ‘Please me’ singer wore a gorgeous Chanel look – here’s how you can get it for less
Houndstooth, a print that originated in Scotland in the mid-19th century, has become a timeless classic, loved by such style icons as Audrey Hepburn and Princess Diana. And the onetime menswear pattern is more modern than ever this season – just ask Cardi B, who was spotted at Paris Fashion Week sporting a $9,200 houndstooth coat by Chanel, giving us the outerwear inspo we needed this season.
The singer arrived at the Grand Palais rocking a head to toe black and white Chanel look, complete with a $2,750 fedora and $10,000 wide-leg checkered suit. But that coat was the highlight of the luxe outfit, chic and versatile enough to elevate any outfit from office wear to jeans. But we’re guessing not everyone has the cash to splash, so here are some houndstooth coat options with a lower price tag.
The Sabra Coat by Lovers + Friends, which can be found at Revolve ($268), is perfect for creating statement looks with its distinctive black and white motif. It’s a straight-cut, midi-length piece that is the perfect addition to any closet.
Zara’s Houndstooth coat ($199) is a great choice, in an on-trend wrap style loved by Meghan Markle. The overcoat is has a stylish oversized cut, giving it a relaxed, yet glamorous look.
If you are looking for a real bargain, Shein’s Double-Breasted Houndstooth Coat will set you back just $39. With it’s notched lapels, it looks great with turtlenecks or pussy-bow blouses – two more of the season’s hottest trends.
