I really struggle with shopping for coats – I find most practical jackets lack fashion-factor, and the more stylish items can feel a little less weather-ready. On top of that, I’m only 5'2, so I find longer cover-ups often swamp me in.
I had been searching for weeks for outdoor-ready attire that also looks chic, and then I spotted the Quilted Liner Maxi Coat from Miss Selfridge, and I knew instantly that I’d found the one. Now, two weeks later, it has become my go-to piece. A khaki green, mid-length design, it features light quilting and front popper fastenings, but the detail that really grabbed my attention is the oversized collar, complete with subtle ruffle trim. The unexpected neckline adds a pretty feel to the otherwise classic jacket, and it has officially ticked all of my winter-shopping boxes.
