%CODE%
I recently spent the weekend up in Keene, NH with some of my best blogger friends. Three of us showed up wearing the same coat in the same color – the J. Crew Factory City Coat! You’ve probably seen me wearing this coat all over my Instagram feed, but after seeing it on my girlfriends I decided it was worthy of a blog post! There’s a reason it’s been one of my best sellers over the past few years … keep reading to see the top 5 reasons reasons you need the J. Crew Factory City Coat. It’s the perfect layer to take you through fall, winter and even spring!
-SIZING-
I find the J. Crew Factory City Coat to fit true to size. I’m a normal size small in tops and wear a size 4 in all J. Crew coats – this style is no exception. Some of the reviews say to size down, but I disagree. Keep in mind the design of this jacket is meant to fit straight and loose, not snug. You also want to leave enough room to layer with vests and chunky winter sweaters! See my J. Crew Factory Try On – Fall 2018 post for some fun ways to layer and style this coat!

5 REASONS TO BUY THE J. CREW FACTORY CITY COAT
1. Perfect length.
I prefer jackets long enough to cover my backside and the J. Crew Factory City Coat does just that. It’s the perfect length falling just about mid thigh – not too short and not too long.
2. Stand-up collar.
I like to think of my coat as an extension of my outfit…rather than just a functional piece. The cut of this coat – particularly the stand-up collar – make it one of the chicest layers I have in my closet.
3. Perfect Neutral Color.
If you’re looking for a neutral coat that will match everything in your wardrobe – this is the one! It’s the perfect shade to style with all your outfits. The color we are wearing is called Heather Akorn – the Black or Grey would be great options too!
4. Versatile enough to dress up or down.
The J. Crew Factory City Coat a classic style that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. I wear this coat with everything from dresses and heels to jeans and sneakers.
5. Affordable Price
Perhaps the best thing about the City Coat is the price tag! The quality is fantastic for the price – I’ve had mine for 3 years and it’s still in great shape! This coat closely resembles the J. Crew Cocoon Coat, but at a much more affordable price.
