GUEST BLOGGER: Alex Light

Guest blogger Alex Light of leading fashion blog What Alex Wears, shares her top picks from the Grace & Oliver AW16 collection.

The thing that I love about Grace & Oliver coats is that they are real statement pieces. Elegant, stylish and unique, you can very easily keep the rest of your outfit simple, letting the coat take centre stage and speak for itself.

1. Celine

My current top pick has to be this stunning black Celine coat. A timeless investment, it is flawlessly tailored and super versatile.

I feel immediately chic when I'm wearing this coat - I'm pretty sure I even stand taller in it!

2. Lily

For when I'm feeling a more casual vibe, my go-to is the Lily coat. In a soft, powdery shade of petal pink that instantly softens winter colours, this peacoat is the perfect way to add a statement touch to your outfit in the colder months.

3. Evie

Every girl needs a great camel coat in their wardrobe, and the Evie is such a beautiful, elegant option. Made from a super soft wool blend, its finish is sumptuous and the silhouette is tailored and sleek.

4. Alexa

You can't beat a beautiful, double-breasted coat, and the military detailing takes this version to a new, modern level. I'm a sucker for zips and extra metal hardware, so this is a total winner for me.

5. Abby

Sometimes you want to wrap up in a big faux fur coat - cue the Abby. The ultimate cool girl coat (I can totally see this on Alexa Chung), you can throw this over almost any outfit for extra style points.
