My pink coat is my 'go to' for a dash of colour, it adds a splash of much needed brightness to all my outfits and can be worn with a huge array of colours, in the winter with black, navy and berry, in the Summer I wear it with denim/chambray shirts and pale denim jeans...For extra warmth in the colder months wear with a biker jacket underneath and an oversize scarf...Asos have a fab range of oversize scarves you can wear with now with block bright coats..

Here are a few of the best colour pop jackets and lightweight coats on the high street now..

This coat looks much better on, wear with a navy sweater, jeans and white trainers, add a orange cross body bag for an extra winter pop of colour. In the summer, wear with a cream, fine sweater, skinny light blue jeans and white trainers or tan sandals.

  1. Great post. A good reminder of the power of a pop of colour. I love your trainers but obviously as i've now decided i want them/ won't look too old wearing them they seemed to have sold out everywhere! x

  4. I eye up that green coat every time I'm in M&S. Very similar to the Zara one that Kat had last year. But I think I'd look just a bit to twee & patriotic in that particular shade of green ,,, usually just reserved for Paddy's Day over here!!
