Warm Regards

The Soïa & Kyo website is insanely pretty, with graphics and effects that will absolutely mesmerize you, but it's the coats themselves that make this Canadian-based label a stand out amongst a sea of outerwear peddlers.

For starters, the brand uses only the finest European wools for its peacoats, and a down and feather blend that makes for impossibly lightweight but incredibly warm nylon jackets. Then designers add extras like chic, saucer-sized buttons, wide belts, asymmetrical collars, and fur-lined hoods to the feminine, mod-inspired silhouettes for sexy, not-at-all-bulky winter coats. Best of all, they're pretty enough to pair with so-ladylike pencil skirts and gloves, yet somehow look amazing with jeans and your most rugged Frye boots.
Stay toasty and dry in the super-sleek, super-stylish 'Kelly' nylon jacket or channel your inner vintage vixen with the deliciously retro 'Eliana' coat (pictured). You can shop online at Soiakyo.com or head to Nordstrom.
