While technicolor fur and over-the-top statement coats took over the streets (and catwalks) of New York last week, in London, where fashion week is now in full swing, it's all about rain-ready utilitarian parkas and puffers. This type of outerwear is not only English weather-suitable, but also ideal for our imminent spring showers. My recent (and prescient!) purchase of this moto-inspired stylish has enabled me to go from the Sierra ski slopes to soggy school runs in style. Other spot-on options include this (70% off), this , this, this , this , this , and this (20% off).
