When it comes to this time of year, your best investment (aside from hidden thermals) is your coat. Because let's face it, it's basically the only thing everyone sees when you leave the house during the cold weather months. Which is why choosing the right (read: chicest) outerwear is all the more important. I normally rely on a puffer coat to help keep me warm and wrapped up during winter, but already this year there's a much more elegant alternative I'm reaching for that keeps me just as warm but helps me feel much more put-together. And that's a classic tailored coat.
Frankie Shop put oversized to-the-floor maxi styles on the map for 2024, and long will they continue into 2025. Which is fabulous news considering I bought the £135 Weekday version at the tail end of last year (I would link it if it hadn't of sold out in days, but I snapped mine up in store, so worth checking). Scarf coat hybrids are still going strong as the winter coat du jour and double-breasted blazer iterations in cosy wool or cashmere are here to make any outdoor plans look sleek. No matter your preference, I've found the best tailored coats that will always look premium––no matter the price point.
