I’m a fan of checks, tartan and houndstooth. They’re all in the plaid family and plaid is so fun to wear! I found this coat on sale at Macy’s last year–complete with scarf!
Coat: Macy’s
Top: Express
Leggings: Kensie Girl
Boots: MIA
Purse: Crystalyn Kae
I like wearing it with bright pants–think red or yellow or fuchsia–but it goes well with anything. Today I wore it with black, but I let my red cowl neck peek out for a pop of color.
Do you like houndstooth? What do you wear it with?

I love your houndstooth coat! I have one too, it’s 5 years old and came from Steve and Barry’s, and I wear it all the time 🙂
Cheers,

Such a classic pattern. I bet you’ll be wearing yours in another 5 years.
What a beautiful coat! I just bought a houndstooth sweater/jacket. It reminded me of a houndstooth coat that I had in the 60s (and wish I still had), so when I found this new one, I was happy to get it as a sort of replacement for the old one.
Houndstooth belongs in every lady’s closet! Love your coat! 🙂
Thank you! I agree. Every closet needs some houndstooth!
I love houndstooth and I am in love with that wonderful coat!
Thank you, Marla! Simple but classic.
I love houndstooth! I used to have a coat with that pattern until my bunny peed all over it…. bunny pee is not easy to get out. TMI? I always love that pattern with all black and a pop of red, you look lovely!
Aw, what a shame. I had no idea bunny pee was that bad. Then again, my dog ruined a purse the same way so I can see how it would be the end of the line for that garment. Thanks for commenting! I hope you get more houndstooth soon.
