#LTStyleTip: Pink Coat

I’m not a girly girl so have never been a big fan of pink but there’s something so irresistible and flattering about the rosy hue. Instead of buying another black coat (who needs black on a dreary winter day?) I chose this pretty style by Canadian designer Sentaler.

Bojana Sentaler has built a reputation for her cosy Peruvian alpaca coats. Since founding her luxury outerwear collection in 2009, her designs have captured global attention with fans including Sophie Gregoire Trudeau (the Canadian First Lady) and Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge. Impressive.

I chose Sentaler’s signature wrap coat with the ribbed sleeves. Made from lightweight alpaca from Peru, it’s warm but surprisingly lightweight and not itchy.

Style tip: To keep the look fresh, I paired it with jeans and boots. A sweet dress and heels wouldn’t suit my style.
