The Best Coats For Winter 2013

As the temperatures outside become gradually cooler that can only mean one thing; coat weather is just around the corner. Now, I have confessed my love for the cooler seasons of Autumn and Winter more than once on here so personally I can't wait for coat season as layering is one of my favourite things to do when styling an outfit, it allows you to experiment with textures and colours and to just be more inventive with style. So over the last couple of days I have been browsing the land of online shopping and choosing my favourite coats online/in-stores at the moment. It is safe to say there is a massive selection out there and seems to be something to suit everyone's taste and even though at the end of my investigation I had far too many coats selected to share with you I did manage to whittle my choices down to 26 while trying to keep a varied selection of styles. So, for all you coats lovers out there like me or for all of you who would simply like an idea of what's on offer this season- here you go.
Happy coat shopping.

Shopping: COATS, The Best Out There

I'm sure by now it's obvious Winter is beginning to kick in, which means it's time to bring our coats out of seasonal retirement. I am currently searching for a new coat, a coat that has good tailoring so it shapes the body well and not make me look like I'm wearing a potato sack like most styles appear. That one little quality I am looking for- good tailoring, is quite hard to find in a coat they all look lovely hanging on the hanger in a shop, but once on all visibility of a waistline disappears, which annoys me so much! So I went on an online mission to track down the best coats I could find to share with you all, as I am sure I'm not the only one  who's on the hunt for a great new coat. I have varied my price range from affordable high-street all the way up to high-end designer.  Feel free to comment below, I would love to know which one[s] you like from my selection!
