impossible to find a winter coat/jacket of the casual/ski variety, that is also maternity?

[novadandypowder]

Have searched some shops and web for a coat/jacket that isn't woollen and smart, that I can throw on over sweat pants and jeans, that'll keep me warmer/drier than a chunky knit.

Pre-bump I wore a black ski jacket, but the zip won't do up over expanding waistline.

Don't mind if it's not maternity, as long as it has a button formation/belt that will allow for a full term bump, as I'm due in march.

Look forward to your suggestions, TIA

hmm - was about to suggest the 'swing' coats of this shape (not neccesarily that pattern ) that are all over the high st this season, but you foxed me by wanting something not wool.

I guess if you could find one a raincoat in the same swingy shape (like this would keep you dry but you'd have to add layers underneath for warmth...
