I don't think 'half decent' and 'not too expensive' go together when it comes to coats. :what:
Foxylady had a lovely coat on last night which she said she got in Gap but don't know how much it cost. Thanks for the tip Tessa :worthy:.
You could try looking around Camden if you are not looking for High street prices though. Don't know what you will find but it might be worth it. :hug:

If I were to go shopping for a Coat, My first stop would probably be Oxford Street. You've got the majority of the high street shop on or around there (Bond street/Regeants street).
If you do find one, can you let me know, Id like a new coat!:innocent:

Central London:hug:Hey D, if you want to come to Camden some time in the next few days, let me know if you want a friendly local to show you round (just don't let me buy shoes!). It's a pretty good place for loads of clothesy-type things, as long as you know where to look, but definitely isn't the usual high street stuff you'll find everywhere else.

Covent Garden market has a stall with a guy selling coats (and a cash point right around the corner if he will discount for cash :wink: ) - what time you arriving? - I only work 10 minutes walk from there :hug:

My coat (well short coat) is from Gap and is gorgeous and deliciously warm !!!!! It has a dinky little belt too....
You can get long versions too (as Annette the DJ has one)...
They go in the washing machine, come in a variety of colours (brown/black/white/and possibly pink - but maybe thats only for kids)
Mine was £70 approx - long one would be more (I would guess!)
I love mine (its creamy white), and wear it everywhere (even up mountains) !!!

I got my very smart, very warm coat, which I have had a number of admiring comments on, for £30 in Surprise Surprise in Oxford Street.

Debenhams in Oxford St has a good sale. Also saw some really nice coats in Hennes on Oxford circus just before xmas...
I would normally avoid oxford st, too many tourists get up to Camden market on Saturday:clap:
I was looking for the wife... honestly:whistle:

Thank you all. I will take a wander with Lone wolf when i am over and hopefully find something. I am over for 10 days but am busy for nearly every day, but i might just be able to get a shopping day in...all for the purpose of a new coat!:whistle:
