A wool coat for traveling east this fall and for the coldest days here in LA. Maybe it covers my butt but not all the way to the knees. Not so fancy it looks ridiculous in Los Angeles. And under $500? My fave coat profile is a chore coat!

COS: Structural, chic, and generally affordable

How about a chic pea coat?: I’m really into pea coats this fall. I feel like they’re the fall/wool version of a chore coat, totally classic and they are pretty easy to find on The Real Real in lots of versions. Navy, black, fitted, straight up and down, different collar sizes, slight shape variations. Just search “pea coat” then filter by your size and the price range you want. Just avoid anything that’s more than 30% off, since everything over 30% off is final sale!
