Game of Thrones may not be here yet but winter is definitely coming. Although I love the summer sunshine and long days, my favourite part about winter is bringing out a beautiful winter coat for those crisp mornings, but how do you find the best coat for you? With so many options from the high street to your favourite brands, it can be tricky finding the best winter coat for your body type.
After spending hours searching the web and stores, I’ve rounded up some of my favourite winter coats of the season, no matter budget or which style you may be looking for. To give you a little bit of help along the way, I’ve also created a three-step checklist so that you can make sure you’ve found the right coat for you. The coat I’m wearing here is from the high street and it’s a cashmere and alpaca mix so the price is amazing for what it is! I’ve linked to this coat below but I’ve also shared a lot of other options in different categories below so scroll down for that!
1. Is it the right colour?
This all depends on whether you’ve already got your capsule winter wardrobe or you’re still building it. If you’ve got all your basic colours (black, camel, navy, white) then feel free to play around a bit and grab a coat in maybe a pattern like plaid or tartan. If you’re still building your basics, then go for a neutral that you know will last you for more than just one season.
2. Is it the right fit for your body?
The key to the right winter coat is being able to dress for your body. If you’re petite like me and want a beautiful long coat like the one I’m wearing, make sure it has a cinched waist or some sort of waist definition. This helps you look taller when you wear it instead of shorter! If you’re already quite tall, a dramatic length is fabulous but you can also try a shorter shape, maybe even a puffier jacket! Feel free to comment below to get more personalised advice based on your body type!
3. Is it the right material?
I always look at what a coat is made of so I can make sure that it will actually keep me warm! Depending on the material you also know how much you’ll need to layer up underneath it and when in the season you can wear it! Once you look at the material, you’ll also know if you need it!
