Tweedjacket

With a wardrobe item as commonly worn as Winter coats and jackets, it's often hard to find the right balance between making a statement and wearing it with everything. This Tweed Coat from Oasis manages to do just that, with a healthy dose of retro style thrown in too.

The heritage style fabrics of both tweed and (faux) fur are a starting point which allows the departure from choices which are practical but dull. The construction of this coat, with its long skirt and belted waist, combines with the oversized collar to create a sumptuous seventies-look style that won't be going out of style any time soon.
