I have been lusting after a parka as an alternative to my wool winter coats. I don’t know why it seems so exciting but I think this is the coat I will be wearing alot this winter.
I have always had some sort of ski jacket but it was for winter activities. My day to day winter coats have usually been a wool coat, whether it be a pea coat or cocoon coat or something more lady like.
But this Bagatelle faux fur lined parka that I found at Marshalls (also here), is for me just what I was looking for without it being too young and trendy.
I also liked the price of this parka. It was consistent in price to those that I found on ASOS but I didn’t have to worry about duty charges at the door.
It is super warm and the whole hood is lined with a really great faux fur. Give it a bit more of luxe feel than the fleece sherpa lining.
Outfit details: Parka by Bagatelle (here or here on sale), Plaid shirt Joe Fresh, jeans & white tee GAP, boots Vintage.
Get your perfect parka:
What do you think about the parka trend? Do you prefer a more lady like coat?

I know it's been a couple of months since you've purchased this jacket, but when you were at Marshalls, were there plenty in stock? I've been searching everywhere for this jacket, since the first time I laid my eyes on it at Winners!

There were a few but I can't say that there would still be some. I got it at the Marshalls out by Sherway Gardens. Good Luck!

I have been on the hunt for a while. Great for just a regular day. The fur lined hood makes it feel fancy lol.
