A new outfit from Elle of Elle Blogs, whom we introduced to YLF in April 2015.

This polished casual Winter look shows that petites can wear an oversized maxi coat with aplomb. Our 5’2″ blogger is sporting a slouchy striped sweater over denim leggings tucked into block-heeled mid-calf boots. As a topper, Elle picked a stunning oversized wool coat with big dramatic patch pockets. The coat’s silhouette and the elegant powder pink make it a true statement piece. Keeping things structured on the bottom half with leggings and refined neutral pointy-toed footwear that lengthens the leg line somewhat tempers the volume of the coat. Turning up the zipper collar of the sweater adds some structure around the neck, but otherwise Elle is wholeheartedly embracing all the delightful pastel volume. A black nylon backpack echoes the sweater stripe and Elle’s sleek dark hair. Big sunnies and bright coral lipstick are the glam finishing touches.
