Next's winter wax jacket similar to £260 Barbour loved by Kate Middleton is 60% cheaper

When it comes to style icons, there are different people I look towards for inspiration in the different seasons. Vanessa Hudgens, the queen of Coachella, always has the best spring outfits while Dua Lipa absolutely nails the summer holiday ensembles.

For autumn, there is nobody that does it better than the Princess of Wales. Kate Middleton looks gorgeous every time she steps out of the door but her casual countryside chic style shines especially bright in the colder months.

Kate is often seen sporting a Barbour jacket. While the heritage brand is praised for its classic designs that 'last a lifetime', they do not come cheap. Fortunately, we've found a way to get the royal look for less.

Next's Dark Brown Heritage Jacket is so chic and utterly perfect for this time of year. The heritage-inspired jacket looks similar to the £259 Avon Waxed Jacket from Barbour but costs way less - more than 60%, in fact.

The preppy dark brown coat costs £95 and is available in sizes small to extra large online now. It has been constructed from a moisture-wicking cotton fabric with a zip fastening as well as a popper placket closure for extra protection against the elements.

It's finished with a cosy soft-touch lining with a check print, as well as a corduroy collar and dual side pockets to carry all your essentials. Thanks to its timeless and versatile design, it will go with virtually any outfit in your autumn and winter wardrobe.

While the piece is so new to the Next website that it hasn't racked up any reviews yet,
