PROTECT YOUR DNA WITH QUANTUM TECHNOLOGY
Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwayI’m sliding in with an early Friday treat because this amazing coat, in crackled leather, has literally just landed at Autograph at M&S. I was planning a coat themed Friday treat for tomorrow which I’ll leave now for the following week because I don’t think any of the coats I had planned are going to fly off the shelves at the rate this one will.

While researching for my coat feature, I discovered that a car coat is made for easy wear in the car, hitting usually just above the knee. I’ve really never had a problem driving in any coat but feel the trend might date back to the 50’s when getting in and out of a car was far more considered than it is today. I mean, I just launch myself in… how complicated can you make things? The Marks & Spencer Leather Patent Crackle Car Coat is a ‘long line’ car coat adding a further complexity that nobody needs but my goodness, what a coat.

The model, gorgeous, is apparently a size 8 and is 5ft 10 so for those of us shorties, it’s going to be a little bit longer than it is on her – neck to hem (on a size 12) is 101cm and it’s 100% leather with a poly/viscose lining. The two most lovely words appear in the ‘how to care for’ – wipe clean! Oh, if all my clothes were wipe clean! Anyway, it’s part of the Autograph ‘investment piece’ range so the price of £350 reflects that – but I saw on Brand Alley, home of the best fashion discounts, a Victoria Beckham leather coat – vastly reduced but still £999 so it’s all relative. It’s HERE if it’s the coat for you 🙂
