What coats do you own?

Just that really - do you have different ones for different occasions?

What do you wear for work?
What do you wear for taking the kids to the park / zoo / museum?
What do you wear to the pub?

What styles are they and what brand / which shop did you get them from?

Thanks!

I don't live in the uk so I only ever wear a coat on holiday.
I have one ski jacket from a european ski shop.
One north face gillet (not really a coat I know)
A fake grey fur slim line coat from Karen Millen that is 18 years old and all the lining is ripped but it looks good on a cool evening.
A beige Mac type coat with a belt, also from Karen Millen, and also very old.

That's it.
If I move back somewhere cooler, I am going to need to go shopping Grin

I have:

3/4 length cashmere mix coat - primarily for work
Grey jersey blazer - work/pub
Leather biker - pub/casual
Spring and winter 3/4 water/wind proof parkas - school run/work if raining
Barbour thick coat - outdoor stuff
Black waterproof - no kind of redundant but no doubt dog walking in spring

Also have a waist length trench which is possibly a little snug. Often wear that for work too

If you're looking for good waterproof coats I'd recommend vikingkids online. They sell different scandi brands and often have last years version in the sale. Good for adults and kids coats (no I don't work there but prices are reasonable and good customer service)
