I keep looking, but can't see any I like, maybe it's more autumn

I've just Bought this one from Boden. It's a really nice fit, quite heavy and looks great with indigo skinnies. I bought the burgundy one but I love it in grey too.

I bought this in black from the Ted Baker outlet at Swindon recently - if you don't do the buttons up it's perfect over skinnies.

Oh thank you both , yes lovely , both are longer jackets than I have had before , are the longer jackets more in do you think

Not sure if they're more in as such. I tend to prefer them a little longer as if a jacket ends just above\at my hips it can add extra width which I don't want Smile

Thank you all, I have bought 2, I have bough a m& s one which is very much like the Boden one but shorter and I have ordered the DPjacket. The jackets with trims seem in at the moment, maybe we all want to look like Harry Styles....

This type of thing is my work / weekend uniform :-)

I posted this in the HOC autumn thread too but FWIW this year I invested in this in vanilla and this in green herringbone - both of which I'll get tailored to fit perfectly. I'm pleased with both, they are well made and work well with skinnies, ankle boots, ballet flats and scarves etc.
