A coat to wear with boyfriend/mom jeans?

Have a few pairs of non skinny jeans but I'm struggling to find a decent warm coat to go with them. Have been wearing with chunky cardigans but the weather is getting colder.

I find a parka looks too 'grungy' and I don't think I can pull off the oversized/big/long coat look.

What is everyone else wearing with their looser jeans?

Oversized big mannish coat. Sorry not helpful but I think it's the only way.
Otherwise you have to go short and suffer a cold bum

A navy pea coat.

I have a mid thigh length, fairly fitted, wool coat from Hobbs. I think it looks good over my girlfriend jeans, usuall with brogues and a scarf.

Thanks for replies!
Ooh, I have a leather jacket, that will be ok for less cold days.👍🏼
Really don't want to buy another coat after having a rummage through my wardrobe of 16!! coats 🙈 Found a nice burgundy pea coat I forgot I had that may work with a scarf!

Nice thick wool st micheals vintage blazer 👌🏾

A blazer is a good shout actually! Why didn't I think of that?

A teddy coat is next in my shopping list for this very reason

I love them and you can pick amazing vintage ones up for next to nothing. Worth scouring depop, eBay and Vinted if you can't be bothered with charity or vintage shops

Anything short and a bit fitted.

I caved.. I've just ordered an oversized cream coat and a black teddy coat and maybe some trainers. Only from miss selfridge, but thanks to a 20% off code & the 24% they have off today, it was a bargainous mini spree! Grin
