There has been a definitive temperature drop over the past few days, and the full winter chill is now officially upon us.
My warmest merino tops are being worn on repeat, with cashmere accessories like socks and gloves working hard as cosy finishing touches. In terms of outerwear, I've been eyeing up my full-length puffer coat, but I'm in need of something a little more elevated with the same insulating appeal, so I spent the morning searching for the best affordable scarf coat. I'm pleased to inform you that Zara came through.
The refined appeal of a scarf coat is undeniable, and with a practical twist that integrates a warm accessory, it makes for the perfect blend of form and function. Truthfully, I've been enamoured by the style ever since the start of winter. High-end offerings from Toteme and Joseph have been on my radar, but if you're looking for a more purse-friendly option, you'll definitely want to scroll on.
The brilliance of Zara is that the brand is always aligned with the latest trending designs whilst tapping into the classic pieces that are sure to go the distance, all with an appealing price tag. And this winter, the high-street hero has excelled in highlighting the trending colours of the moment along with party-ready pieces for the festive season and most recently, a highly chic selection of scarf coats.
From shorter lengths to long styles and of-the-moment burgundy shades to classic black, there's a scarf coat to suit everyone at Zara right now. Even those searching for a playful print will be satiated with the brand's latest offerings. So let's get straight into it—below are the best scarf coats at Zara this winter.
