Looking for a new winter coat? Zara has so many good ones I had to share with you, like trenches, faux furs, leather coats and more. Of all the seasons, winter stands as one of my favourites. The moment the temperature drops and I can feel the cold winds, I immediately take it as an excuse to wear a warm knit and buy a good coat. You’d be surprised at how good Zara‘s are.
As someone who lives in a cold city, I’ve done my fair share of hunting for the perfect winter coat. I don’t just want my outerwear to be warm, although that’s important too; I want it to look good and stay that way for years. There’s no point buying a coat I won’t wear again after this year.
While autumn has only just arrived, it’s done so with a bang. It’s already so cold, so a decent coat is a must. My first port of all was Zara, where I’ve narrowed down 12 of my favourites that I thought I’d share with you.
On my wish list is a fitted wool coat in the colour of the season: red. I’m always looking for pieces that add a pop of colour to my outfits, so this is the perfect piece for the new season. But there are some staples too, like a leather trench coat with contrast flaps that would go with absolutely everything and a simple but beautiful neutral raincoat.
Take a look for yourself. Check out my top picks, below. Next, read about the biggest coat trends of autumn winter 2023 for inspo and look at our edit of the best coats of the season too.
