    As the title states I'm on the lookout for a nice bright winter coat.I'm ideally looking for something that will last maybe this year and the next.I guess 100e would be my top end.
    The search is tougher than I had hoped. I've checked Miss Seldfidge, Tesco, Dorothy Perkins, New Look, River Island and Top Shop. I'd rather try it on before buying and I live in Galway but will be in Dublin soon.
    So any ideas would be appreciated.Galway is no shopping Mecca that's for sure!
    Thank in advance if any of you have some ideas.

    Have you checked Debenhams? They sometimes have some really nice coats! Also Tkmaxx if you're willing to look around a little :) Next too, but its a little bit pricy.
    If you don't find anything you should check out littlewoodsireland their jackets are really affordable too.

    Thanks Koolis02, forgot about TKMaxx,I'll definitely give that a go. I checked in Next again today and there's nothing bright. Everywhere seems to have parka style,with fur without fur,with leather patches,with leather sleeves or tweed look,with or without fur.I never would have thought of Littlewoods,I'll check them out but would rather see and feel the coat first but it may be the only option to shop on line. Thanks for your reply.

    It's not a great year for bright colors but Zara might be worth a try. Most of them are a little over your budget but a couple are under 100 Euro.

    Dunnes have some nice coats this year, I tried a Savida one (pink and grey tweedy boyfriend style) and I think a Gallery one (bright pink with detachable furry bits) the other day and was surprised by how good the quality and fit were, and both were around €80 i think.

    Definitely tk maxx. You should be able to get a fairly warm, fashionable winter coat for around €100.

    Thanks Meeeeh, I couldn't do more than a thanks previously as I was reduced to a barely working tablet! But I think the green zip and buckle coat is the one! I just love it even though it is slightly over budget. It looks beautiful, I may be the proud owner next pay day! Thanks to all the other replies. I did consider the boyfriend purple and pink coat in Dunnes ,Savida collecton but I don't think I could carry it off, I'd look like Hilda Ogden in it,I'm just not cool enough to carry it off. All set for winter so,thanks.
