The opportunities are endless when it comes to styling your winter coat this year. You no longer need a closet of different coats to make an impact—one will do! It’s just all about the details. We partnered with Madden Girl at Kohl’s to show you three standard types of coats, the statement, the puffer and the cargo coat, and exactly what to pair with them to get the most mileage out of your outerwear this season.

1. The statement coat

You might think a statement coat, like this Madden Girl Juniors’ Faux Fur Jacket, can only be worn one way. Think again! You don’t have to be a fashion risk-taker to pull off this cozy chic look. On the left, we paired the faux fur jacket with the very fashion-forward fringe boots (the 70s are having a moment!) and a cozy patterned scarf —bold and feminine. But for the more utilitarian-style girls who don’t want a lot of fuss, the coat works also paired with a plaid flannel, jeans and these Madden Girl Flurryy Women’s Duck Boots.

2. The puffer coat

The puffer coat is a cold weather classic, and yours is sure to get a lot of use this winter! Here’s how to style it so you don’t get bored with the same old look: Make like a model off-duty with some cool shades, a shimmery baseball cap and lots of black and gray—save for the pop of color on your feet! We love the cozy versatility of the Madden Girl Jackmen Women’s Boots. If you prefer a more relaxed, hipster vibe, pair your Madden Girl Juniors’ Quilted Puffer Jacket with ripped jeans, patterned earmuffs, a fun scarf and duck boots. Easy and effortlessly chic!

3. The cargo coat

These Madden Girl coats look great dressed up or down. For your go-to-class cold weather uniform, pair your favorite jeans with the faux fur-lined Madden Girl Crrystal Women’s Fold-Over Boots with the Juniors’ Cargo Plus Hood Jacket (pockets for days!), a scarf and a warm sweater. The utilitarian-chic coat still looks great paired with girly clothes, too, though. We love it with a warm infinity scarf and a quirky dress.

This season, you only need one fab coat to make a statement! With trendy cold weather outerwear from Madden Girl at Kohl’s, you’re sure to have your chicest winter yet.
