The corset coat proves that while winter is here, it doesn’t have to be boring.
Everyone needs a ridiculous coat, right? (Right, Ashley, right.) I spotted this black corset coat at ASOS (psst, it’s on mega sale right now for under $45!) and had to have it. It was silly and super fun– plus I was very curious if a puffer coat (i.e., a known figure-swallower) flattering. Could it be done?
Indeed, yes! This corset coat (and yes, those are working corset strings; pull ’em as tight as you want!) was a great alternative to the oversized orange version I wore last week. I pulled it on with a pair of high-waisted black denim and black patent boots for an all-black, all-badass look. And, again, functional fashion: this sucker is quite warm.
Shop the look:
Don’t mind me if I add a few more puffer jackets to the wardrobe. Oversized, cropped, hooded– I am down. They’re cozy as can be, and with fashion-forward styling like a corset, you can be sure you’ll stand out in a crowd of basic parkas and wool peacoats. This corset coat also comes in a gorgeous bright red (with a printed corset!) and is on sale, if you really want to knock ’em dead. (It’s in my cart right now.)
Speaking of cozy, check back Thursday: I’m sharing all my cozy favorites right now (many of which are on sale). I don’t know about you, but January is all about getting warm and staying that way. Thursday’s post aims to do just that.

Never thought a corset belt can make a jacket this stylish. Great one Ashley!

Oh this is such a great idea to reclaim your waistline in a puffy coat! I love it!
I love this coat- such a great fit!
What a stylish look! Also, I love when groups (like women) re-claim things that were once a source of oppression and convert them into something positive. That’s a significant political act which I always applaud.
Yes! Take it and make it modern + positive! Thank you, friend!
What a fun puffer coat! The corset adds such a great element and you look so warm!

Thanks, girlfriend! And isn’t this coat fun? I had to have it- and thank you about my hair! The Path to Platinum continues!
LOL I love that you wanted a flattering puffer coat. Who knew such a thing existed? I thought I was doomed to look like the brother from A Christmas Story for all of winter. Love it on you!

Yessss- the best of both worlds!
Oh my! Ths corset coat is everthing and I need it in my life! You look AMAZING and I love how you style this look! Fabulous!

Too fun, right? Thanks, gf!
How cool and trendy is this coat?! I’ve been seeing the corset trend in so many forms, but not like this. This really is a unique way to do it, while keeping warm and not to mention, it cinches the waist in a piece that would otherwise conceal it. Thanks for sharing, girl, and I hope you have a great week!

The corset is actually attached, which makes this so handy!
I know I can always count on you for some fashion inspo. This is so unique and yet you can so pull it off!

Aw, thanks so much, lady! I like to try out the trends- sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, haha. But I love this jacket!

What a fun coat! It’s got some sass to it which I love!
Not gonna lie, this is the first time I’ve seen a corseted coat. Totally unique and creative. Don’t think I could pull it off though — literally and figuratively, lol.
Great outfit, dear! I love the jacket:)
