aaargh i am at the end of my tether looking for a nice winter coat

[MistyMountainHop]

today i have been to topshop, river island, h&m, miss selfridge, dorothy perkins, new look and gap to look for a new winter coat

to NO avail. as there is NOTHING decent in any of those shops, it all looks nasty cheap crap IMO. unfortunately my budget can only stretch to £100 absolute tops but surely thats enough to get a nice coat? :(

i would like a parka type coat but i don't like any i have seen so far as i want one with a REALLY furry hood if that makes sense as i like that look

i am 31 and size 8 and pretty short (five foot 2)

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated ..... :)

Brand Alley have some nice looking Helly Hansen parkas today for around the £100 mark.

TK Maxx -lots of different brands at different prices

thanks both will check out the webites :)

I think Warehouse did a nice parka style coat, have a look at their website.

Zara also?

try looking through this lot :)

hope link works. Will be back later just in case.

If you can stretch the budget a little

I have the Dark Khaki Faux Fur Hood Long Waxed Parka
at £98, wore it today, very cozy, quite fitted and a very furry hood. Not at all cheap or nasty! Sorry can't link...www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=2573484&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=391052&parent_categoryId=203984&pageSize=200

Planet - any use? (always order a size smaller, these are made really generously)

google karen millen ebay outlet, they have just put some more woolen coats on, bit more than your budget but will last years and years.
