What jacket or coat will you be wearing now?

Just checked the 90-day forecast here in London and it's not going below 11 degrees from now on. So that's my wool coat packed away!

What are we all going to be wearing as our outer layers between now and the summer? I am looking for two items - one for every day school run with leggings / jeans and one for evenings out with smart jeans / skirt?

I must admit I really like wearing my winter coats as they are my best quality items (most expensive) and wearing a long coat flatters me as I'm tall, and makes me appear slimmer (conceals my overweight middle).

Shorter jackets just aren't as elegant but I'm sure there must be something nice?

Any ideas? I'm 43, tall, size 14 and fairly on trend, or so I think!

Thanks 🙏

Well, I’m delighted to report that today, an hour beyond London, I really needed my wool coat. And beanie. And gloves. And boots!
