  • LOLE For active women

    0 comments / Posted on by Dom Girard

    The brand LOLË is well known for their sportswear, yoga accessories, etc. But they also make excellent outerwear, practical and specifically designed for the active woman. They offer flattering cuts that fit the body without restricting movement. They also have a great range of winter accessories that make you want to wrap up in them all day !!

    Here are three favorite looks of our team :)

     

    This first look features a top seller from their winter collection, the EMMY ORIGINAL (also available in black). A long shiny quilted coat with a removable belt, a 2-way zipper, an adjustable hood and 2 front pockets with zippers. It's water-repellent and windproof and can comfortably be worn at temperatures down to -20c. I particularly like the EMMY for its length, but also for the different stitching patterns on the sides and back that add a touch of originality to this classic. We styled it here with a beige oversized scarf and mittens of the same color for a neutral look ... but far from boring!

     

    I personally love this outfit because it features light colors which is pretty rare in winter! The KAYLY coat is a very popular model in our stores as it offers many practical details such as a 2-way zipper, a hood with a large collar and 2 zippered front pockets. It's also water-repellent and wind-resistant, whilst remaining breathable. Like most LOLE coats, it's perfect for an active lifestyle. The light grey of the KAYLY matches perfectly with the pink of these knitted accessories (also available in grey or black). For a soft and comfortable look!

     

    The last outfit is a bit more on the classic side , for those who want to stay simple... the KATIE L EDITION is a safe bet! Its classic cut and its mat finish makes it a timeless classic. It is also water repellent, wind resistant and can be comfortably worn at temperature down to -20c, which makes it a good ally during our rigorous winters. We styled it here with a tubular scarf in shades of cream white and dark blue, but with a black coat you can really play with contrasting accessories ... like a red scarf for example! The possibilities are limitless ;)

    Yes to local designers and Vegan!

    Featuring LOLË, Matt & Nat and Point Zero.

     

    Whether for personal, social or ethical reasons, more and more people are wanting to support local companies (much to our delight), and also buy vegan (without any animal products). It’s not only food that can be vegan, fashion can be too! Today I’m bringing you two local winter looks which are both locally designed AND vegan!

      

    My first look is perfect for the girl who likes to move. Whether heading to school or work, your two slogans you live by are: practical and comfortable. I must start by saying that I was very, very surprised by the comfort of the coat I chose (Point Zero 8618535). I felt like I was cocooned in my favorite quilt. What's great about it is that it has a removable inner liner that, once taken out, makes the coat lighter and ideal for mild weather in spring or fall. It’s insulated in polyester and not down, but I have to say I had to check to be certain as it was so warm and cozy! I completed the look with a large, infinite scarf (LOLE law0448, also available in black, navy or khaki - 100% acrylic) which added punch to this classic coat. For a final touch I added Matt & Nat's Brave backpack made of vegan leather and recycled materials.

      

     

    The second look is on the simpler side too, but with a touch more chic. This time I opted for a long black coat from LOLE (luw0403). I realized after choosing this coat that it is isolated with down and that therefore, it is not 100% vegan. However the fur is synthetic (and removable) and all the materials used are either recycled or treated in an eco-responsible way, which is not to be underestimated! I completed the look with a 100% acrylic LOLE scarf (law0438) that has small silver details that go well with the more chic look that I was going for. The final touch is another Matt & Nat bag (because I’m in love with this brand). This time I opted for the Sheenan handbag (offered in black or carbon), for its practical size and original shape. The shoulder strap is also a big plus!

          

     

    There you go, how to have a warm winter along with being eco-responsible. There are more and more fake fur coat choices showing up and I invite you to check them out.
