I am animal print obsessed right now. So this was a must-have from Storm Clothing. I love the length, it works with a dress and jeans and heels, it also is ideal for those days when you want to wear something super casual and coverup with a glam-looking coat. #love.

Storm, Leopard Fur Jacket, $399.

Colour and texture, this coat ticks all the boxes for me. This has been my best buy for winter and I am thrashing it right now with our latest cold snap.

Trelise Cooper, Candy Yum Yum Coat, $529.

I like a coat to double as a jacket, I am not keen on a full-length option. This fluffy addition to my wardrobe is ideal worn casual with jeans and a T-shirt, or over a dress when I am wanting to feel glam for a night out.

Ruby, Pandora Jacket, $349.
