Boyfriends Are Great!

Lately, we've realized that half our wardrobes seem to be borrowed from the boys. We're talking oversized button-downs, baggy trousers, supersized watches, and oxford lace-ups, to name a few pieces we currently can't live without. Apparently we girls want to have it all—and wear it all—so it's no surprise that we're repurposing yet another menswear-inspired item for our own stylesetting agendas: the boyfriend coat. And who can blame us? There's something delightfully powerful about slipping into a big semi-slouchy coat, plus this oversized outerwear option is surprisingly practical, as it allows for all sorts of cozy layering as the weather turns colder. Exhibiting masculine touches—such as large pockets, traditional patterns, and a double-breasted shape—yet fit for the feminine frame, boyfriend coats are the perfect replacement for last year's puffer, making them the winter-wonderful item you must Go Buy Now!
In case you need convincing that this cool coat should be your next big-ticket purchase, we'll take a closer look at some of the collections that brought this trend into the limelight. Seen at the F/W 10 shows of some of our favorite French fashion brands—most notably Chloe, Vanessa Bruno, and Kenzo—boyfriend coats were used to deftly execute two distinct sartorial scenarios. In the first, designers embraced androgyny and paired these coats with menswear basics to conjure up an au courant Annie Hall. An ideal example of this is our featured Kenzo look, for which designer Antonio Marras used a cherry-red boyfriend coat to accent a cropped, wide-leg Pantsuit and even finished off the ensemble with a masculine Hat for a quirky, unisex outfit that's a lovely mix of late-seventies inspiration and cutting-edge style. In the second, boyfriend coats were utilized in contrast to decidedly more feminine pieces, like silky blouses or wool mini skirts, resulting in a sexy I-slept-at-my-boyfriend's-and-stole-his-coat aesthetic. While the latter example is more traditionally alluring (and is often paired with bedhead hair), the former still exudes a sense of confidence that is surprisingly sexy, which means that this outerwear option is a thrillingly versatile pick!
Now that we've given you a quick rundown on all the ways in which to wear this piece du jour, we'll turn our attention to the stars of today's story: the actual coats themselves! At Aria Boutique, we selected Furi Design this season as our shining examples for your layering enjoyment, and we hope that you find them just as covetable as we do!

Walking in NYC
Hey Everyone!
First off, I must apologize for some posts that some great photos are not showing up! Sorry. Blogging from my IPhone, I guess, is an issue. I will figure that out soon. Hopefully you all don't think I am a bit weird/crazy! Just a little bit.
Yesterday I met a blogger. Yes, I actually met a blogger in person! That hasn't happened to me before. I read alot of blogs. I follow alot of blogs. But I have never met the owner/writer of a blog. I guess there still a first time for some things.
This blogger, Schmutzie, was looking for some great, stylish shoes to wear when she goes to the BlogHer Convention in New York City. How exciting to meet a blogger in person and then one that is very serious about blogging and has attended the BlogHer Convention for the last 3 years. So back to the shoes......well, when I am walking a city or working/walking for many hours, like when I buy for Aria Boutique, I wear El Naturalista shoes. They are lifesavers! Really. Unbelievably, good for you, your back, your feet, and STYLISH to boot! So Schmutzie selected the most stylish El Naturalista's that I have on hand at the moment, the Tesela N742, in black with the double ankle strap. These have a great little heel and the SHOCK ABSORBERS in the El Naturalista's are what saves us. I think Schmutzie will do just fine in NYC in her chic El Naturalistas! Hoping to see photos....if you are reading this Schmutzie.

Aria Woman
On her way to the spring wine & cheese at Aria Boutique, this fab woman, Laura, realized that everything she was wearing was from Aria!! Everything except for her bra! Hmm, shall we start bringing in bras? I love all the Aria women out there! Thanks for loving what I bring in. And this is also a strong coo for Canadian Designers! So way to go to all the amazing design talent our country has to offer. I feel proud every day that, like Laura, I'm wearing Canadian right down toy knickers! Check out our knickers at www.ShopAria.ca under Collections - SmartAss. They are fantab!!

Fat Days!
I can't seem to get motivated to exercise on a regular basis these days....don't know if it is just the after Christmas blahs or what?! Actually, I haven't exercised regularly for awhile. I must admit. Is it all the work I am doing? The cooking, caring, driving of two teenagers? I seem to exercise one day and swear that this is it my mojo is back and I will be so dedicated. I feel great and then a week later I realize that I haven't worked out for a whole 7 days!
So today, my Fat Day, feeling the same....soft....bumpy... I put on my Collection Iris Navy Flannel Pants (hi-waisted and a bit of a wider leg) and my Collection Iris Extra Fine Merino Sweater (thin but not clingy) and not only did I feel better but I looked like I was fit. Well, the clothes fit me perfectly. I smiled. I smiled because it is so nice when clothing is cut for a woman and cut very well in the finest of fabrics. So my unexercised body and I walked out of the house, head high, and off we went to work.
Talking to a regular customer today, she says Tammy have you lost weight! Not that losing weight is important to me, fitness and health are, I felt redeemed by choosing the right clothes for me today!
So to go back to my usual promotion of Aria Boutique....check out Collection Iris when you are there! She does wonders for us all! Trust me.
