Since the months are getting colder it is time to start thinking about your outerwear during the A/W2013. Coats need to do a lot of things for us, its not just about looking good even though that is really really important. They need to keep us warm, dry and have pockets for keys, bus money, phone and unfortunately tissues because we all know by mid September colds & flues will start spreading.
I feel like a coat is an investment as we will wear it everyday and we want it to last the whole season. I don't think a trendy coat is the way to go as trends come and go so fast. A more classic option or cut will go with a multitude of outfits, occasions ad even carry on for more then one season.
More classic options could be a nude trench coat. It works with everything, can be dressed up or down, worn with any color scheme and can be used season after season. A duffel coat in black or khaki green is another timeless piece, we have all had one at one time or another. A black leather jacket is a great option for a timeless, effortless edgy look.
Beware of bright colors! Color trends come an go so fast what will all the shades of colors there can be. Unless you have your heart set on that bright yellow peplum coat from River Island I'd advise going for a more neutral shade or at least avoiding the peplum trend on an item that you may want to wear again next year.
Basically, try shop smart for your key wardrope pieces.
