What jacket would you wear with this?

Recently moved back to Scotland after 15 years in hot countries and I'm re-learning how to do layers for colder weather 😅Currently have an oversized very soft denim jacket from Hush, a massive warm sailing jacket and a waterproof, but not much else.

Found this dress that I really like and am imagining a long-sleeved cream top underneath it in autumn with tights and boots... but I really struggle with jacket styles and colours!

What would you put over something like this in autumn?

I'm light-toned - a 'light spring' in colour theory, if that's helpful, so blacks and darks don't suit me brilliantly, and a fairly straight up-and-down size 8-10.

A bomber jacket or coat the same length or a bit longer like a trench.

Ooh @Britpopbaby that's nice! And a bit of a go-with-everything option, too...

It's more casual than I was imagining, but I might need it anyway even if not for this outfit 😅

And thanks @Florencesndzebedee - are there any shops you'd recommend for that kind of outerwear? I'm so out of touch 😩

Im so sorry - he’s from Barcelona

I love the blank looks from my younger colleagues when I offer round the staff room snacks “biscuit? Would you care for a rat perhaps?”
