Smart coat on a budget?

33 replies

I need a warm-ish, smart, autumn/winter coat, but I'm on a bit of a budget...

Can anyone recommend anywhere I should be looking please?

Search Ebay for top end makes and pure wool or cashmere coats. I've had some amazing bargains.

@toolazytothinkofausername they have great coats !

Gap has 50% off for the next couple of days. They usually do good coats.

This has a big reduction (bit over your budget) but looks v classic and high quality and would likely see you through a decade.

@gunnersgold

Primark have smart coats for £23 , I have one in red and one in camel , perfect for layering !
I was going to suggest the same @gunnersgold I’ve tried that coat on a few times. Good quality for the money. Be interesting to know how it wears.

Well, I went in-person shopping today. Only saw two I like; one they didn't have in my size and the other shop (M&S in Windsor Halloween Hmm) had padlocked all their coats shut so you couldn't try them on Halloween Confused. Maybe they have a shoplifting problem, but still pretty crap.

Will maybe order some online to try on. The Mango one you've bought is lovely @LaBellina. Let me know how it is on please Halloween Smile
