The first thing I search for in the summer sales are’sturdy but stylish coats that will see me though AW. These are my favourites right now.

This shade of brick is a quintessential autumn colour so this coat is a?great piece to pick up in the summer sales. I like the three-quarter length cut as it doesn’t look too heavy so works well whatever the season.

A directional item?like this full-sleeve coat from Zara needs nothing else to bring your look to life. The belted silhouette balances the full sleeves, and I love the graphic detailing of just a single button fastening at the top.
