I get cold. And I live in Scotland.

I need a coat that zips / buttons right up, can go over a cardi, but that looks summery.

Where should I look? Links greatly appreciated...

TIA

Watching with interest! I desperately need a new coat. I'm thinking something light coloured with a belt...

Lots of links, thank you!!

I want something that won't look out of place at the park - casual. But I like structured casual rather than scruffy casual!

The fat face link looks most promising so far...(surprising as Fat Face items don't usually appeal to me..despite loving it for others)

Thinking there is a wee gap in the market?I love this shape of jacket... if only it came in a summery fabric...boden type brights or stripes or spots
