5 Holiday Looks with Ellen Tracy

Now that the temperatures are really dropping, I have to get bundled up every time we go outside - scarf, gloves, hat, everything! My family and I have been running all over town grabbing the perfect holiday presents, checking out the beautifully hung lights, and visiting family we’ve been missing. Every trip out, I’ve tossed on my Ellen Tracy Double Breasted Wool Blend Coat. I am absolutely in love with it! The high quality wool-blended coat is my go-to now. It’s cut in a classic double-breasted silhouette for an extra-flattering shape, fitted to your body. Plus, I love that no matter what style I’m going with that day, the coat offers two different looks. Depending on whether I decide to pop the collar or not, I can go from casual to chic styles.
