Lancaster’s infamous winter weather is beginning to wrap its icy grip around the town and a warm coat is something you need to invest in if you don’t already have one. So many different styles of coats are in fashion this season, so you truly have your free choice of what to buy to keep yourself warm.
Blanket capes have been huge ever since Burberry brought out its monogramed range. A brilliant invention; such a versatile piece that you can use to layer on top of another coat or even use as an oversized scarf. But fear not – you need not splash your cash on a Burberry original! New Look have a great high street version incorporating another of this seasons trends: check.
Boyfriend coats have always had their place on the catwalks, will always keep you warm and never go out of fashion. A classic cut, especially if worn in a monochrome palette, and it will also probably suit most outfits. Currently on the high street at the moment, you can snap up this bargain style from H&M for £24.99!
Another lifetime investment I would recommend buying is a trusty leather jacket. Works with anything, always in fashion and if you buy carefully should last a lifetime. Stick with traditional black or spice things up with a cute pastel or muted neutral, it will definitely work out cheaply in regards to cost per wear. Pick up this classic essential from ASOS for an absolute steal!
Last, but not least, a huge trend this year has been the duster coat. First appearing at London Fashion Week this spring, it’s still going strong late into autumn. Available in a wide variety of colours to suit your personal style, there’s bound to be one that fits into your wardrobe. The easiest way to bring a duster coat easily into your wardrobe is via a classic black cut, like this one available from New Look.
