The Perfect Winter Coat

(coat, Sandro; turtleneck, Uniqlo; leather pants, Whistles; bag, Maje; boots, Duo; gloves, Cos)

Now that it is getting colder here in London, I thought I would share with you my favourite coat, and what makes it my perfect Winter coat. 

Last Winter, I think I pretty much wore it almost every day to school. I got it two or three years ago from Sandro, and I've got to say that when it comes to finding that perfect Winter coat, it is worth investing a little extra for one that will last you for years and keep you warm. This one was definitely worth the money. Often wool coats aren't warm enough in the colder months but this one has slight padding on the inside for warm and a snug feel. It is a classic double breasted collared coat, but what makes it special are the details like the brown leather buttons, pockets, detachable shearling collar and my favourite, the dark silver zip which is a genius addition and gives it a little edge. Plus it's black, so it goes with everything. For my build it is a perfect fit as it is not too long that it swamps me, and not too baggy or tight. Finding the perfect coat can be a challenge, but once you do, it is most satisfying and everyday wearing it will feel like wearing a new coat.

With Love,
