Every year just before Guy Fawkes Night I like to get my winter coat. I don’t like to start wrapping up too early; my mum always told me you’d never feel the benefit when winter hit. Bonfire night is always the first night of the year you have a real excuse to wrap up warm look out a woolly hat, gloves and of course show off your new winter coat. This year I have been loving capes. Only problem was picking one because I just loved so many of them! Here are some of my favourites…

| Phase Eight 160 |
 |
| Wallis 50 |
 |
| Dorothy Perkins 69 |
 |
| Topshop 65 |
When I researched this on-line I have to admit I never even noticed the bottom coat from Topshop but when I went shopping it caught my eye and I ended up buying it. In this picture you can't see it is a cape but it has a realy nice batwing effect when on. At first I was worried it was more casual than I wanted but the colour and shape look much better on and the cosy fluffy sheepskin collar just makes it for me.
The best bit was it was reduced from 80 to 65 so I’m actually considering getting a second coat for this winter my budget for one coat was 100 so my decision now is do I stretch it a little and buy the Wallis checked number? (my grandpa’s football team was Auchinleck Talbot who play in those colours they always give me happy memoires) Or do I buy a plain black coat from H&M and stay with in budget? Well that’s a decision for another day…. For today I’m going wrap up warm for the fireworks, run around like a kid and pretend I can fly in my new cape coat…

I love the one you picked, I think I saw it in Topshop recently :) H&M are doing some really cheap coats, there are some for around £20 I think! :) xx
