I prefer shopping for coats and knitwear as soon as the autumn/winter collections arrive online. In the past, I would wait until the weather got colder and would always end up missing out because by then the best coats in my size would already be sold out. A month or two ago while browsing through the wool coat section in the middle of a heatwave (as one does lol) I came across this beautiful coat in “ivory” (has more of a grey undertone to it) and had to have it.
