Following on from my previous posts on fur coats (
see here) & parkas (

I love a camel coat thrown over a pair of jeans & don't think there's anything more gorgeous when teamed with a simple white shirt & some leopard print ballet pumps. The only problem is that there are so many styles to choose from you're spoilt for choice.
Now last year I brought a three quarter length single breasted camel coat from Zara but that doesn't mean I'm not hankering after another coat to add to the collection! So here's my edit of the best camel coats currently on the high street.
Starting with this gorgeous belted one from Mango. I love this style but if you're like me & not comfortable with a belted coat but love the style you can always wear it either undone with the belt untied (after all if you're like me you'll very rarely do your coat up anyway!) or to give a bit more shape & definition tie the belt at the back.
I love how Mango have styled the coat with the rolled up casual fit grey trousers & trainers.
Next up is this oversized coat from ASOS, similar in style but minus the belt. Again it's been styled with trainers but this time with a skirt & whilst I haven't yet embraced the full on trainer trend both these pictures are seriously tempting me!!
Or if the above coat looks too oversized then this ASOS cocoon coat looks a great alternative.
Or even this one from Topshop.
Moving onto a more tailored style next with this classic double breasted coat from Mango.
Or this single breasted one from M&S, which is a little similar to the one I brought last year.
Or how about this one from Zara?
Or what about this one from Massimo Dutti. More expensive than the rest but the quality, cut & style are bound to be fantastic.
Or for a slightly more casual feel perfect for the school run then you won't go wrong with this double breasted pea coat.
But if you love the style of a mac but need something a bit warmer for winter then this coat from Mango would be perfect.
Keeping with a more casual feel & this shorter coat from Mango would look fab teamed with a large scarf.
Or how about this waterfall style from Next?
And finally there's this collarless blanket coat from Topshop. Love the black piping & detailing. I think this would look stunning teamed with some black cigarette pants & ballet pumps.
Finishing with what I'm wearing today.
Shirt - Zara
Leather Cuff - Banana Republic
Jeans - Zara
So what do you think are you a camel coat kind of girl?! Do you have a favourite from my pick of the high street? I think I'm leaning towards the ASOS Pea Coat & the M&S Wool Blend Flap Pocket coat but if I'm honest I wouldn't mind one in each style! How about you, I'd love to hear which you'd pick!
