Women
One of the key pieces to any Winter wardrobe is of course a coat. Parkas, duffle coats and coats with faux fur detailing can be seen everywhere at the moment and brands such as Kangol, Firetrap and Lee Cooper all have stylish and on-trend ranges.
Chunky knitwear  and cardigans are also staple items, Golddigga have a selection of cable knit jumpers and fleece collared knitted cardigans that are perfect for slipping on and snuggling up in. Firetrap also have a great range of knitwear, including a Navajo knitted jumper with a woolly lining and a fair isle style design for a festive feel.
Cossack hats are all the rage at the moment, creating a Russian chic vibe, and are perfect for wearing in the evening. However, for a daytime look, bobble hats or trapper hats are ideal and are available in a range of fun and quirky designs, such as the cupcake one from Voodoo Dolls.
When it comes to footwear, boots is where it is at and there are a range of women’s boots that are in fashion this season. Chelsea boots, long boots and boots with metal detailing are among the most fashionable this year and brands such as Firetrap and Miss Fiori have a range that are perfect for both day and night wear.
