WITH school runs back for autumn, it can get chilly in the mornings with the drop offs.
Thankfully, one stylish mum has revealed how she spotted a chic coat in Primark which could be ideal for looking glam while staying warm.
The £34 version of the coat is fleece-lined, but there is a £30 non-fleece version too[/caption]
Seema, who posts under @seema.stylesofficial, shared how she spotted the budget retailer is selling a Shower Resistant Jacket.
There are two options available for the coat, a £34 fleece-lined version, and a £30 option without the cosy lining.
Seema seemed impressed with the find, saying: “Mamas! The school run just got stylish.”
She added: “Run, don’t walk, to @Primark!
“These fleece-lined raincoats come in chocolate brown and beige (and they’re SO cosy).
“They’ve also got shorter styles without the lining if you’re after something lighter.”
The long coats look perfect for adding on top of trousers or a dress to keep you warm in autumn.
And with two colours available, you can choose what will suit your wardrobe best.
Thanks to it being “shower resistant”, a bit of rain won’t matter as you drop your little ones off.
Over 2,700 people have liked Seema’s clip, and seemed keen to snap it up for the autumn.
People who didn’t have kids said the coats could be perfect for dog walks or even heading to uni for studies in the cold.
One said: “Need to get.”
A second added: “This is nice.”
Meanwhile, a third commented: “I have this! Super comfy.”
NEW PRIMARK SERVICE
This comes as Primark is making a major change to its stores as part of a huge new trial.
The high street fashion chain has partnered with care and repair firm The Seam to offer same-day clothes repair and alterations at its Manchester Market Street store.
To use the service shoppers need to book an appointment online via Eventbrite but the retailer said that walk-ins are also welcome, subject to availability.
During their appointment customers will meet The Seam Maker.
They will then discuss the repair their item needs and leave it for 20 to 30 minutes to be fixed.
Customers will also be given the option to return later in the day.
The item will then be fixed and ready to collect.
Prices will start from just £3, up to a maximum of £10 for simple services.
Primark will subsidise the cost of the service to make it more affordable.
The service will be available on the lower ground floor of the store every Friday from September 26 until December 19.
Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget
By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor
AS someone who’s no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it’s about time that celebrities started catching on too.
For as long as I’ve been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those “I have nothing to wear” moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect.
And I’m definitely not alone – on any Friday or Saturday night, you’ll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time.
But no matter what, Primark always delivers.
Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores.
While Rita’s not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she’s proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less.
Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham – if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards.
With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I’m sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
