Keeping warm can be stylish too


While we'll always welcome the combo of sunny days and summer dresses, there's nothing quite like putting on a gorgeous coat when the temperature drops.
As well as its functional purpose of keeping us warm, a statement coat really can make an outfit - simply throwing one over a jeans and top combo can transform your look.
And we're not the only ones - celebrities also know the importance of a good coat. From bold block colours to cute prints and glamorous macs, scroll through these snaps for some serious coat inspiration.
