How to Style a Cropped Teddy Coat

Hi Friends! If you want to add a touch of fashion and warmth to your everyday wardrobe, then a cropped teddy coat is a perfect choice. Do you remember my teddy coat post when I talked about picking up two coats at Francesca’s for $35? I wanted to show you the second coat that I scored!

This cropped teddy coat is such a fun statement piece! I wore it to a choir concert a few weeks ago over a black dress with boots, but it’s an ideal topper to add a touch of glam to your typical everyday outfit too! With the weather we’ve been having, I wouldn’t wear it as outwear yet, but it’s great to throw on as an extra layer when you are not going to be outside for very long. My coat is sold out, but I linked up a few similar options at the end of the post!

Here are some tips to help you style it with pieces from your closet for looks that will keep you looking chic and warm!

Cropped Teddy Coat Styling Tips

Pair with Jeans or a Dress

A cropped teddy coat is a great way to keep warm in style. Try pairing it with dark-wash jeans, a bodysuit, and strappy heels to dress it up. If you’re looking for a more casual look, try layering your cropped teddy over the top of an oversized dress and styling it with ankle boots or sneakers. This look adds an extra element of warmth while still looking chic!

Mix Prints and Textures for a Bold Look

Need to stand out from the crowd? Pairing a cropped teddy coat with mixed prints and textures adds an extra level of style to any outfit. Try matching dark florals with other prints and textures like suede and knit for added interest, or balance bold colors with monochromatic hues. Varying prints and textures make your look instantly more eye-catching and memorable!

Add Extra Layers When Needed

Balance a cropped teddy coat with long layers underneath — lightweight tanks, camisoles, tees, sweaters, or blouses. A tissue turtle-neck top keeps you warm without adding bulk. Alternatively, if you want to focus more on the print and texture of your outfit, layer with subtle basics such as button-ups or neutral-colored knitwear. Keep everything tucked in for a polished layered look that won’t add too much extra bulk.
