Anyone got their eye on anything?

I got the Cos big fluffy one in navy two years ago and still love it but a bit bored so looking at possibly blowing out on a new one.

Eyeing the Elder coat from All Saints..

Too many shops not getting the August memo for starting to look at winter coats

The cost of living increases have clearly affected a lot of people 🙄

We’re not after hair shirts, thanks.

I bought a Jaeger Max Mara dupe from M&S last year and it’s fab. Camel with a belt tie and it does indeed instantly elevate most things.

I am after a short, oversized puffa jacket for casual use but worried they are a bit passé.

Recently bought this to take me into autumn.

I bought two new coats last year and two the year before so I probably don't need a new one, but I am in the market for a couple of practical winter jackets. And have been contemplating this one

Desperate to see some more autumn/winter stuff in the shops now. I need long sleeve tees and considering some barrel leg jeans.

newrubylane I, like you, have bought 2x lovely coats last year. One v nice wool which, as someone else has said, instantly elevates one from scruff to take-me-seriously. The other is a weather-throw-your-worst-at-me waterproof duvet from North Face.
So, I dont need another coat, but, damn you, that is a nice-and-handy jacket you've linked.
