Autumn Leaves & Cosy Coats

After doing my winter coat post the other day, I took a notion and ordered the Room 31 Effie Down Coat as I noticed there was a 30% off code. That brought the already reduced coat price down to £22 including delivery!
It arrived yesterday and I just couldn't wait to share with you all. Since I featured it on Monday, it's almost sold out - only the XS left which is a 6-8 (I'm wearing the S which I'd say is a small 10). 
(UPDATE : It also comes in beige… and there were some M's left in beige when I posted this blog first but just XS left in it too. Sorry to all but the tiny amongst you)
Vila Effie Down Jacket - £30 (with 30% off using code LFLW)
As I was so snug in my new coat, we headed out to kick some autumn leaves…


Grey Jeans - Primark
Black Ankle Boots - River Island
Scarf - Pull & Bear
Loving the zip detail on the side which give you more room when walking with the coat closed!
And to answer my mum's concerns, I did close my coat and put my hood up…
What I'm most impressed with is that it is filled with actual down & feathers…not polyester. So it's super cosy - perfect for the cold snap coming in this weekend! Well done Room31 on another great product…I'll share photos when the beige arrives. x

    1. Lol GL!! After I took the photos, hubby said 'I hope there wasn't a big dog poo under there!' The leaves had just fallen - it was quite dry…honest! x

  4. Lovely Avril, I like it and it's not bulky at all, padded coats can be.

  7. It's looking very nice to wear. It will give a different and unique look for you during the holidays, if you go abroad at beautiful hotels.
