Vintage Fall Coats by the Decade

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mich chapter.

 

The Pumpkin Spice Latte is back at Starbucks, so it clearly must be time to start thinking about pulling out that Fall Coat and brushing the dust off (even though it may have still been over 70 degrees just last week). Maybe it’s even time to start looking into buying a new one. Perhaps your pockets are so worn out they’re just good-for-nothing holes like mine, or maybe you’ve spilled a few too many coffees on it rushing to class and its finally starting to be an embarrassment to wear around. Instead of hitting up the North Face or searching through the sea of pea coats for the one that’s just the right shade of black, think about going vintage this time around! You can get a really cute, original coat from just about any decade (let’s say, between the 30’s and 70’s or so…I don’t any of us are really ready for 90s coats to make a resurgence) on Etsy, so I decided to compile a list of some of the bests that you can definitely maybe almost certainly pull off this Fall.

1930s:

1. At $324, this coat is definitely not particularly budget-friendly, but it is adorable!
