The €25 Penneys coat we’ll be living in now the rain is here to stay

Cathy Donohue

The rain is back with a vengeance.

It might be time to admit that summer 2018 is officially over and we’re not just not ready to say goodbye.

To be fair, the heatwave was glorious so we can’t complain too much but the current weather situation (extreme humidity/random rain showers) isn’t much fun.

Thankfully, autumn winter fashion is one way to get us excited about the new season and we are ready for cosy knits, warm coats and ankle boots.

Of course, fashion also needs to be practical, particularly for everyday weather and that’s why we’re all about this Penneys jacket.

The black parka-style coat is one you’ll wear every day which ensures major value for money and as we all know, a hood is absolutely essential for the Irish climate.

However, if you’d rather something a little more dressy, then this checked coat is due to arrive in stores soon.

If you’re a fan, you’ll be delighted to know that the crombie style piece should land in shops across the country from this Sunday, 19 August.

It’s the perfect transitional piece which you can wear over a t-shirt now and it will work equally well with a warm jumper once temperatures drop.

We also love the fact that it would work for evening too worm with a pretty camisole and faded jeans or leather pants and a black top once winter sets in.

You’ll get bang for your buck with this one!
