In Search of the Perfect Coat

It's that time of the year again where you'll find me frantically ransacking every shop in search of the perfect coat. For me the right coat is one of the most tricky items to find and discovering one that works with every outfit is essential. As I plan to wear it everyday when the weather cools down it's a piece I'm happy to spend around £100 on which for me as a student is quite an investment!

This year I was  looking for a long, woolen navy or black coat with a few small details but not too much going on. I wanted a coat that is interesting and versatile and will also cover up my wobbly bits!

My favourite was this coat from NewLook, I love the exposed zips, the long length and the contrasting leather-look cuffs and collar. I felt it was very good value at £54.99, which was reduced to £49.45 with student discount. I can't wait for it to arrive!

Others I found include this Dark Green Coat from Tesco which is lovely but too expensive at £120! I also like this Navy Zip up coat from NewLook and this Black Coat with Asymmetric zip from Next.
