Shortish winter coat/jacket to go with 'big' trouser shape?

Most of my winter trousers are now wide-leg or barrel, which don't seem to go with the long parka shape of winter coat I've been wearing for years. What to wear instead??

NEED big secure pockets for phone, tissues, poo bags etc, which has been the main stumbling block on those I've found so far.

Will mostly be used on dog walks, shopping, casual. Showerproof.

Thanks for any ideas!

Forgot to say - budget up to £150ish.

Also, anything cream / orangey brown is out as those colours don't suit me. Unfortunately, as everything seems to be beige or brown atm!

@MuthaHubbard ooh thanks, I like that, looks v trendy (though I am ancient!!).

Not sure how one-size would work, would have to try it I guess (I'm size 16ish).

I would get a short ohs one. Like the above but cheaper.
