Dressing for the cold coat wearing winter months is no easy task with the weather being so unpredictable here in the UK.
You never know what you’re going to get this time of year – one minute it can be a lovely sunny morning and then without any warning, rain showers set in to ruin just about any outfit.
This can unfortunately mean a hell of a lot of outfit planning in the mornings. Umbrella or no umbrella? Coat or scarf? And exactly how many layers are too many layers?
Well, what if I told you we could alleviate at least one of those questions for you – enter the scarf coat. You might have guessed it, it’s a coat with a built-in scarf.
The newest trend all started with Stockholm-based label Tôteme, who released a scarf-jacket hybrid that Instagram went wild for. The cult item sold out in a matter of days and most of us were left wondering when the high street would work its magic.
We asked and the high street sure answered; while the Tôteme style will set you back £690, the H&M, M&S, Whistles iterations are a lot kinder to our bank accounts.
What I love most about this trend is that it’s both stylish and cozy. The matching one piece is so effortless and chic, and it keeps you warm. What’s not to love?
We’ve rounded up all the best scarf style coats and jackets to suit every style, shape and budget.
From tassels to puffers, we’re here for them all – keep scrolling for our 9 favourites available right now.
