It’s been quite some time since I’ve bought myself a coat. But today, as I thew on a goose down vest to fend off the morning chill, the urge for a new outer shell set in. I have a gorgeous trapeze coat in a subtle aztec print that has kept me warm for years, but I like the idea of something longer and a little more classic. This one from Club Monaco makes me think of something Jane Birkin might have worn walking the streets of Paris with Serge Gainsbourg. I adore the colour of this bouclé coat from Emilia Wickstead and this MSGM coat is a great hue, too. Coats likes these make the idea of cold weather easier to bare.
