Coat and bag for work and school run

[Findahouse21]

Hi everyone

I'll be returning to work from maternity leave in November and was hoping that you could help me with some coat and bag advice please.

Coat - I'll be walking about 40 minute round trip with dd most days so would live your recommendation for a stylish, warm and waterproof coat please. I'm between a 12 and 14 at the moment but very short (under 5 feet) so long long ones are out. I am open to any colours.

Bag - I'll be taking dd's to school and nursery en route to work so ideally I'd love a bag that can fit my surface pro, lunch and any personal bits - purse, phone etc. I'm leaning towards a Rucksack as I'll be pushing the pram for at least part of the journey, but could be convinced

Budget is around £75 per item

Thank you in advance

Yes I did explain that it is not a thick jacket in my posts above. I will wear mine in the colder months with layers. It is waterproof so would be fine in a rainy November

I got a Roka bag recently and it's great. Back pack style, loads of pockets!
