Stay warm with the best winter coats and boots
It’s only bad weather if you’re not dressed for it; so as wintery weather starts to make its presence felt make sure you have the right clothing.
There are two items that spell success when it comes to dressing for the cold weather: winter coats and boots. They will keep you warm, give you the grip you need for navigating slippery pavements and can be effortlessly stylish when chosen well.
Choosing a winter coat for work
Now that many people are back on the daily commute, looking stylish and smart while staying warm and dry needs to be a priority.
Ideally a smart winter coat will work for the office and beyond, allowing you to maximise your investment. With tailored designs dominating the high street, there is a wide choice of designs that will match any look, from the office to an evening out.
One of the key looks of the autumn/winter 2022 wardrobe is a tailored wool coat. Investing in a smart wool jacket is a move that will pay off, with quality labels lasting for years.
Longline coats have made a strong reappearance and are perfect for staying toasty, while practical mid-length coats are also a viable choice in the style stakes. Designs are belted, double breasted or single breasted – the choice is yours. Alongside tailored designs, oversized styles remain popular if you prefer to keep your look a little looser.
In fitting with the autumn/winter fashion trends for 2022, colour is also a consideration to make when picking a coat. Smart black, grey and neutral designs will mix and match easily while also standing the test of time. However, the bright blues, pinks and greens that have been so evident on the catwalk will also allow you to add a serious pop of colour to your outfit.

Puffer coats, parkas, bomber jackets and more…
It’s not all about wool designs though, for as long as the mind can recall puffer coats have been a fashion hit. You really can’t go far wrong with a good puffer coat and this season they are back again, keeping you warm, dry and looking good. In this evergreen category, you’ll also find the trusty parka, which again offers warmth and style to keep you looking good while wrapped up.
There will be updated looks for some of the key styles from earlier in the year too with padded bomber jackets, fringed jackets and oversize wool blazers adding to the array of winter coats to choose from.
For a padded coat or parka try FatFace, New Look and Dapper Street.
Technical coats
If enjoying the great outdoors is your thing, you’ll want a jacket that will stand up to the elements, no matter what. Investing in a high quality jacket is the best way to ensure you can continue to enjoy getting out in the great outdoors, regardless of the weather. Full waterproof jackets will stop the rain getting through, and when layered up with a fleece underneath will keep you nice and toasty.
Trespass has an excellent selection of waterproof jackets as well as ski wear that will allow you to enjoy your outdoor hobbies this winter.
If the boot fits…
This season sees chunky boots continue to rule the roost on styles from biker boots to Chelsea boots, which is great for helping you to navigate treacherous pavements – safe and stylish! Mid-length boots also see a return with flat soles and suede proving popular.
If you are a fan of heels, these are also catered for as pointy toed stiletto boots are everywhere.
For a choice of boots head to Marks and Spencer and Hobbs.
Get a grip
If you want to get out and enjoy nature’s autumnal displays or keep fit through the winter months by walking, you will need a decent pair of waterproof boots with a good, sturdy grip.
Wellies are a fashion favourite for the country set and come in a variety of colours and designs. For maximum comfort and support though you may want to invest in a pair of walking boots. Designed with comfort in mind, a good pair of boots will allow you to walk for miles without rubbing or making your feet feel tired. Modern fabrics are remarkably lightweight too.
For walking boots and wellies head to Trespass.
Keep little ones dry (and happy!)
Not to forget the kids – wrapping up to stay warm and dry can really make or break a day out with little ones. JoJo Maman Bébé has a fantastic selection of colourful, and highly effective, winter clothing and wellies for young children, including waterproof jackets and trousers and all-in-one suits.
