'I bought a windproof autumn jacket on sale - it's so much warmer than I expected'

Autumn can be a particular hard time of year to dress, one day it's freezing cold - or at least, it feels like it - and others it's quite pleasant out. If you're not quite ready to commit to a heavy duty winter coat just yet, you might want to add a cosy light layer on to your everyday ensembles.

Fortunately, we've found a warm yet lightweight mac at Seasalt Cornwall that ticks all the boxes. What's more, it's been slashed in price by over 42%. Right now, shoppers can pick up the Ash Tree Short Cotton Mac for £62.95 down from £110. That's a whopping saving of £47.50.

A boxier version of the classic trench, the organic cotton mac is perfect for dry but cooler days. Classic details include storm flaps front and back, and cuffs with adjustable buttoned tabs. The £62 piece is finished off with a row of smart mock-horn buttons at the front, creating an extra but essential layer you'll want to reach for time and time again.

The Ash Tree Short Cotton Mac has been well received by shoppers, racking up an impressive overall-rating of 4.2 out of five. Giving it a glowing fives tars, one shopper said: "Great jacket it’s windproof which makes it warmer than expected. Versatile and always looks good."

A second mentioned: "I really like it. The minute I tried it on, I knew it was a keeper. It’s a soft canvas-y cotton, don’t think of it as a rain jacket, it’s more of a light layer. I love the style, but the sleeves are just about long enough, and I’m only 5ft 3ins. This might be an issue for taller people."
