You can never have too many coats, and a good quality one is always a worthwhile investment – well, so I tell my credit card anyway…

For my annual Winter coat purchase, this year I’ve decided on this cream wool coat with pockets and an uber-soft fur lapel – £89.99 from Zara.

A classic yet slightly over-sized shape, and a suitable length to hide my bum and thigh-tops (phew!). Many of my coats nip in at my waist or are dark or bright in colour, but I wanted to try something different this year, and sometimes change is good…

I just need to make sure I avoid any coloured food, drink, paint, or any other liquids whilst wearing this coat! With the fun festive season soon approaching it will be interesting to see how I get on with that….. 😉
