The Raven
Monday, October 09, 2017
I had to laugh as we drove through town yesterday, there were all sorts of outfits for the rather mild October morning. I saw everything from shorts and t-shirts to arctic parkers with scarves. Nobody knows what to put on each day with the descent into autumn. I've been valuating whether I'm sort of winter wear and although I simply cannot find enough jumpers, there are probably plenty of everything else in my wardrobe, though mu eyes are always peeled for more jeans. For outdoorsy types like me it's outer wear which really needs to pull it's weight; a good pair of boots and a coat is a must for the days when the temperatures never rise and cold winds whistle on by.
A practical coat always gets a thumbs up from C and this Raven coat from Lighthouse clothing is a great choice for this season. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever owned such a perfect winter coat!
Where do I start? Well, the shearling fleeced lining is gorgeously soft and warm to keep me super toasty and comfortable. The hood is also lined to make a snug hug around my head on those really rotten days. The outer layer is 100% cotton with a Teflon coating, it's waterproof, wind proof, the zips and poppers are sturdy. My favourite feature has to be the drawstring to the waist as it allows you to achieve a feminine silhouette while remaining warm. It's a great coat and the length is spot on too in order that rain drips off and away.
I'm a Lighthouse Clothing fan! These are high quality jackets which tick all the boxes for comfort, practicality and style as well as representing good value for money. The Raven coat is £99.95 which I consider to be entirely justified. This is going to be my go-to coat all through the cold winter.
While the Lighthouse ethos is all based around simple island living and nautical inspired design, there is no harm in taking their jackets all over the countryside. With practical outerwear for all members of the family (not pets though) there is a wonderful collection on their website. This coat is in 'midnight' but also comes in sunset yellow. The whole palette is beautiful, I love the 'bramble' and 'ocean deep' shades. So pretty.

Many thanks to Lighthouse for sending me this coat to feature, all words and opinions are my own as always.
