Autumn is just around the corner, and therefore it's time to turn your attention to your coat collection and give it a well-deserved update.
Whether coats are your sartorial kryptonite, or usually a matter of an afterthought, checking out the trends that are set to be huge this season is a useful way of informing your choice.
Nothing compares to a stylish coat in its ability to elevate an outfit. A chic layering piece has the unique capability to hide a multitude of sins if what you've thrown on during a gloomy early start turns out to lack a certain je ne sais quoi in the (very) cold light of day.
