Thanks M&S

I know it's a bit too cold to think about trench coats, but when you come across such a good one, you just have to snap it up and hope for better weather soon.

Introducing the perfect gingham trench, courtesy of Marks & Spencer, who lest we forget are behind THE sold out constellation dress.

Now if you're looking for a bit of a departure from your timeless camel coat, then you'll love the equally classic but slightly more avant-garde gingham print on this style.

It's not as bold as tartan or checks, so you won't grow tired of it, and it'll stand the test of time for sure, as it's a classic shape.

It also comes with a detachable belt to create a flattering hourglass figure, though I'll be wearing it open over a white t-shirt, cropped jeans and trainers for a more laid back look.

At a purse-friendly £89, it's understandably had gained lots of attention on social media, and as it's limited edition, you don't want to wait about, especially as it's still available in all sizes.

Penny Goldstone is the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire, covering everything from catwalk trends to royal fashion and the latest high street and Instagram must-haves.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
