by · Daily Record

M&S has been exciting its loyal fans with its collection of new season must-haves, with many eyeing up new items for the colder weather.

One that they seem to have fallen in love with is the Double Breasted Short Peacoat with Wool. Priced at £65, this coat might be a new addition, but it has already earned a near perfect five star rating from those who bought it.

The Manchester Evening News reports that those who have picked up the coat have said that it "makes a nice change" to the standard jackets on the market. Crafted with a high-quality wool for a premium touch, its a little more luxurious than its price-tag.

With its easy regular-fit, it boasts a "dressy" design that falls to waist-length, with a chic double-breasted fastening. It's finished with a revere collar neckline, warm quilted lining and two handy side pockets.

Available in a very autumnal butterscotch colourway, the coat is still available to buy in sizes ranging from a UK 6 through to 24. Whether paired over your favourite trousers, or with a fashionable satin skirt, it can add a warm extra layer to your entire autumn wardrobe.

A second wrote: "Stylish and looks great with wide leg trousers. Love the colour. Normally a size eight, but purchased a 10 so could wear over a thicker jumper in the colder weather. Highly recommend."

Someone else remarked: "Great jacket love the camel colour. Nice weight and makes a change from puffer coats to have a smart jacket. Good length not too short and excellent for the car. Price point just right. M and S you have really had some fabulous clothes this last two years. Your buyers are really keeping up with trends. I am 71 and trendy and have bought many of your clothes the fit is great. Thank you."
