Winter Coats - The 2012 Trend Edition

The one fashion item we can always rely on in winter is a chic and trendy coat. Not only do they keep us warmly wrapped up, but they also add instant glamour when tossed over any cozily layered outfit (some of which we would rather not have anyone see). This season, designers have spelt out a number of great coat trends...from puffy quilted coats to prim military jackets, oversized cocoon shaped coats to boxy blazers. 



As most of us would heed serious caution before swiping our credit cards for a $2000 Jil Sander coat, we have the high street retail brands to thank for their splendid renditions of these designer duds. These are Winter 2012's biggest coat trends, where we all can achieve the 'Luxury Look For Less'.

Which winter coat trend are you most willing to try out?
