How To Wear An Oversized Military Parka

This look is borrowed from the boys. Literally. I stole this oversized military parka from my son. Well, not quite stole. He outgrew the jacket so I gladly took it off his hands and put it in my closet. I love military parkas but always have a hard time finding one that fits how I want. They are either too tight or too frumpy. Who would have thought that the perfect oversized military parka would come from the men’s section? And from my teenage son’s closet at that?!

It’s really easy to look boyish in an oversized coat since it doesn’t show off any curves. I paired my oversized military parka with over-the-knee boots to add a feminine flare. The red lipstick sealed the deal.

I’m sorry I can’t share my exact coat with you guys as my son had this military parka for a few years now, but here are a few fly options. From both the men’s and women’s departments…

The rest of the outfit is hidden under the coat, but all black is always a good look. Black turtlenecks and high waist jeans are Winter staples for me. I have a few of each in my closet.

You couldn’t tell me I wasn’t fly with my “Coming To America” inspired side ponytail lol.
