This €50 Dunnes Stores jacket is key for keeping snug during autumn

Bargain alert.

Denise Curtin

Finding the perfect jacket for the changeable autumn months can be a hashtag struggle.

The glam winter jackets are far too hot (the temperatures are still at 22 degrees folks) and those flimsy summer jackets keep nobody warm when the sharp Irish winds come knocking.

Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised to spot this €50 beauty over the weekend. The perfect jacket that falls into that tricky “not too light not too heavy” category.

I’ll admit, I often forget about Dunnes Stores and the fact they actually stock some deadly bits so, when I trotted in there over the weekend, I just had to nab this up.

From their brand Savida, this “stripe rib cuff coat” is both snug but light and the fit is perfect. I got size small and as a size 8-10, it fit perfectly. It is also probably one of the only “long jackets” I’ve ever put on and not felt like it only suits “tall girls” as so often the problem being 5ft 4.

The jacket which is now in-stores is perfect to theme with a pair of jeans, trainers and a cute tee or similarly like the model above, with a dress and boots.

It’s a versatile piece you’ll keep going back to and as my mom would say, sure for only €50 “you’d be mad not to”.

You can purchase the jacket online here or in-stores.
