Tonal layers keep your look slick
“Choosing a complementary shade of jumper to your coat is a great way to create a smart look without it being overly formal – particularly when you go for a great shade like this pink coat. Wearing a slightly lighter pink underneath softens the look, too. Adding a lovely creamy caramel jumper under this brown coat would also tick a lot of style boxes.”

Always add interesting accessories
“I’m often quite practical when it comes to coats and buy fairly neutral colours. So I love to add a burst of interest with accessories – whether that’s a cool pair of boots, amazing scarf, or, in this case, awesome bags! This leather leopard-print bag will be great for the party season coming up and this fleecy style is so cool and fits so much stuff in. It’s the perfect ‘mum’ bag."
