How to Style your Winter Coat

Winter coats are the first thing we think about once the weather turns colder, and as the sartorial backbone of our seasonal wardrobe, it’s absolutely essential that we find and invest in the perfect one. This season at Quattro Rish we are cosying up in everything from statement prints (loving Baum und Pferdgarten’s Danika wool coat) – to maxi coats (SET, Custommade and MiH have created coats that you’ll be cherishing for years).

Length-wise, anything goes. We’re loving maxi coats, but a cool cropped style (Unreal Fur) will look equally chic. With winter coats looking seriously good this season, we also have an amazing collection of super cool accessories and bags to finish off your winter look.   We are beyond excited with Liebeskind Berlin’s AW15 collection of timeless designs and softest, natural leather – a combination which makes this label one of our best sellers.

 

With the temperature set to drop in the coming weeks, we instinctively develop a natural urge to wrap ourselves up in a stylish maxi coat.  This coat is easy to style; throw over jeans and ankle boots or sporty shoes and tights – add a luxury Liebeskind bag to finish off your look: –

Knitwear is the perfect blend of Fashion & Function

A good knit is a mainstay of your winter wardrobe, but for a contemporary take on old faithful’s, the ribbed knit and roll neck are the key pieces you need to invest in this AW15.

Channel the ‘70s vibe, which is abundant this season with a grooved piece of knitwear in a neutral shade – we love the Dr Denim cable knit jumper in cream and SET chunky knit cropped jumper in grey.  For a casual look, team ribbed knits with jeans, or mix textures and layer with a shirt for a smarter look – style with trainers or heels.

a3    a4
SET chunky knit cropped jumper, £159 / Current Elliott shirt, £220 / Lollys Laundry joggers, £69 / Becksondergaard clutch, £39

 

a7    a8
Dr Denim cable knit jumper, £69 / MiH white Louis shirt, £175 / MiH Bodycon jeans in black, £185 / IvyLee leopard print shoes, £170

 

Roll neck jumper, turtleneck jumper, polo neck jumper… Whatever you want to call it, the high neck piece of knitwear is chic, practical and cosy.  For the perfect cover-up / throw-on invest in Baum und Pferdgarten’s chunky cable knit mohair poncho in grey – a must-have layering option for the cooler months. Slip yours on with everything from dresses to casual tees.

For a splash of vibrant colour this autumn team the super soft jumper from Amercian Vintage in carrot (also available in soft grey) with skinny jeans and ankle boots or add a subtle hue of blue with the soft turtleneck in ice blue from Des Petits Hauts.

Twist & Tango turtleneck in grey melange, £135

 

We love the effortless fine knit layering piece.  This check-patterned jumper from Custommade is perfect for the girl who loves boyfriend jeans but wants to balance this with a feminine touch – add ankle boots to finish off your look.  The Des Petits Hauts green v-neck luxury knit and Bellerose wool jumper are timeless pieces which offer endless styling options – wear with tailored trousers to the office, or flares at the weekend.

Custommade Fiva jumper with frill detail, £159

Des Petits Hauts green v-neck luxury jumper, £145 / Dr Denim wide leg trousers, £55 / Becksondergaard bag, £99 / Rose Rankin black dot Coney trainers, £139

Bellerose wool Dulter jumper, £110 / Twist & Tango stretch pencil skirt, £89 / Bellerose hat, £55 / Rose Rankin black dot Coney trainers, £139

 

The cosy cardigan is a must-have for your winter wardrobe.  We love teaming these cardigans from American Vintage with tailoring just as much as we do with denim.  Designed to fit slightly loose so it layers easily over both office and weekend wardrobe staples – try these cardigans over a dress with boots at the weekend.

Scandinavian Simplicity

We love Danish accessory brand, Becksondergaard.  Their beautiful colours and Scandinavian simplicity creates stylish accessories with a twist that is ever changing to compliment each season’s trends.

This season from Becksondergaard we see the return of the luxury fabrics which we adore: fine woven wool and silk and cotton in perfect colours with out of scale and minimal prints – for the first time we see a more minimalist look with pops of colour on the edging.  Think navy, grey with pops of Scandi neon !  This collection also shows a love for the sequin which we adore worn casually with jeans and cosy jumpers plus the return of the soft leather bags that are super affordable and super lovely.

Here is a taster of our A/W15 Becksondergaard collection available at Quattro Rish: –

The 3 white shirts you need in your wardrobe

Whether you wear yours oversized with rolled up sleeves or tied at the waist, white shirts have never been so versatile.  The classic white shirt is a fashion staple and you can never have too many of them in your wardrobe, trust us: we own a few !  We L O V E our collection of MiH white shirts with their varying cuts, fabrics and design details, each white shirt has totally distinct vibes.

More versatile than anything else in our wardrobes, the white shirt looks chic during the day with accessories kept to a minimum, simply add sunglasses.  During the evening add a pop of lip colour and a statement necklace with heels.  The beautiful thing about MiH shirts is that once washed you just chuck back on again – no ironing !

Here are our 3 favourite white shirts this season from MiH: –

 

The oversized shirt

a1    a4
We no longer have to borrow from our other half !  This oversized shirt is the perfect boyfriend fit wardrobe staple for a casual daytime style – looks fabulous with denim, sneakers or sandals.  Button up to the neck and style with a statement necklace for a dose of evening sophistication.  £155.

Shown with: MiH London Jean, £185 // Sol Sana Miller Sandal, £59

 

The Poet Shirt

a1    a2
We absolutely adore this crisp cotton feminine take on a white shirt.  With 3/4 length sleeves this shirt looks elegant loose or tied at the waist, perfect for this season’s laid back mood.  £175.

Shown with: Twist & Tango Mill Dress, £155 // Sol Sana Sandals, £69

 

The Louis Shirt

a1    a1
A tailored white shirt with extra attention to detail, we love the stitched-down pleat from the back yoke.  This minimal penny collar shirt looks effortlessly stylish tied at the waist or worn loose.  £185.

Spring Denim Styles

It’s no secret that the 70s trend is influencing almost every SS15 collection out there, from flares and pale washed denim to pastel lace-up ankle boots, this spring is going to be one big 70s time warp !

As with each season we buy with our customer in mind, we source a collection of denim that flatters each individual body shape but that screams cool and wearable with a nod to the current season’s trends.

New to Quattro Rish this season is the Tomboy jean from MiH, if you live in your Phoebe jeans then you will L O V E the Tomboy – with a hint at the loose ease of a boyfriend but with a slimmer fit, the Tomboy is the perfect go-to casual jean this season.  We welcome the return of denim classics such as the Stiletto in a pale wash with orange stitching; or the Paris from MiH in both blue and white.  Why not channel 2015’s answer to the loose leg boyfriend and try the flare !  We are very excited about the imminent arrival of the Skinny Marrakesh jean from MiH, this jean fits like a skinny at the top before flaring into a statement kick – these jeans will be as adorable with flat shoes as they are with heels.

Our best selling style so far this season is the Straight cut-off jean in white from Current Elliott.  Wear them loose for a more casual style or go down a size for a more fitted look.

The 70s vibe continues with our amazing footwear collection now available in store from Seven Boot Lane //

Seven Boot Lane

The moment we discovered Seven Boot Lane boots and shoes we were hooked.  The brand’s designs are beautiful, the craftsmanship and materials used of excellent quality, yet the prices are not unreasonable.  Seven Boot Lane are successfully bridging the gap in the market between luxury and affordability – this is our first season with SBL and already at Quattro Rish we have a growing following of SBL boot aficionados !!

A family-run business, we asked Sebastian at Seven Boot Lane a few questions about his brand: –

A little Q&A 

Q  What made you want to create your own brand of footwear?

A  We established Seven Boot Lane in 2012 as an antidote to modern consumer throwaway mentality, our company creates beautiful boots that are designed to stand the test of time both in quality and design. 

Q  What do you think is the secret of your success?

A  Key to the success of the brand are style, versatility and stunning craftsmanship.  We believe passionately in creating footwear that combine sophisticated, understated design with stunning quality materials. Our boots are crafted using beautiful Spanish lasts and natural hand-finished leather – which are engineered to last. 

Q  Are your designs influenced by fashion trends?

A  Our distinctive design handwriting has provided a refreshing take on today’s favourite boot profiles, from bikers to flats, cowboys to Chelsea’s – whilst maintaining a timeless, classic vibe on each design.

Smart Tips for Instant Outfits this Winter…

[vc_row no_margin=”true” padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px” border=”none”][vc_column width=”1/1″][x_video_embed type=”16:9″][/x_video_embed][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][text_output]The autumn/winter season can be a tricky one for our wardrobe unless prepared – whilst autumn only began a few weeks ago there is already the risk of falling into a style rut and wearing the same style outfit day in day out.  Instead we want you to make the most out of your wardrobe and embrace the season with all its prints, colour, textures and shapes by following these smart style tips :-

1.  Invest in a statement coat; our new favourite at Quattro Rish is the black long line Tina coat from Twist & Tango.  This is an absolute staple for the winter wardrobe.

2.  Make sure you have a pair of sneakers and ankle boots that can be paired with your favourite jeans, trousers, dresses and skirts; the Sol Sana Luca boot is feminine and on-trend for this season.

3.  Layering plays a large part in our winter wardrobe.  We adore the cat t.shirt by Des Petits Hauts teamed with the chunky knit cardigan from American Vintage.  Style with colour this season and add some winter chic with the sapphire long sleeved top from American Vintage and Becksondergaard wool scarf draped loosely around the shoulders // scarves are big this season.

4.  We take our inspiration from the streets and are obsessed with the way denim is worn by the many style bloggers across Europe.  Boyfriend jeans are everywhere again this season so wear rolled with ankle boots and unrolled with sneakers, don’t worry though as the skinny jean is still a firm favourite!  We adore the cut and finish of the Regina jean from Dr Denim // just add your statement coat for some street style envy.

5.  It’s a good idea to add variety when it comes to knitwear; a chunky cardigan, statement sweater and  oversized knit with colour will cover our favourite knitwear trends.  We adore SET’s statement sweater (shown in the feature photo) – just the right amount of attitude…

6.  And finally glamour, everyone needs a pinch of glamour and this season we are going noir.  The black jumpsuit from American Vintage is elegant and flattering and can be carried from day to evening simply with a change of footwear.  The zip skirt from SET can be worn during the day with sneakers and a statement sweater or with a turtleneck and ankle boots // casual styling made easy!
