    I'm looking for a warm winter coat, one that I can wear doing frosty snowy weather. Any suggestion as to which brands would be best?

    Zara do beautiful coats! And I heard a rumour that they may soon be opening an online shop with delivery to Ireland - can anyone confirm?

    There was a topic about Zara... anyway their online store is UK, France and a couple of other places that are not Ireland, with more markets coming later in the year

    +1 on their coats tho, I adore the one I got last year. It's Zara Woman, and significantly warmer than teh Zara Basic jacket I already had. OP - check the wool content. You need about 70% wool minimum for warmth. I saw two beautiful coats in Zara last week in Portugal but it was 30+ degrees, I couldn't even bring myself to try them on.

    I bought a lovely jacket in Zara about 2 years ago and wore it almost every day during the last 2 winters and found it fantastic. It's really warm and has lasted really well. It's one of the best buys I've made.

    If you can travel and have a bit of extra cash to spare, Jimmy Hourihan's coats are lovely and very warm. I think he only sells out of his 'factory' outlet in Glasnevin (website here).

    Took a quick look at the site, but the only pictures that are up on it are capes, but they definitely do really nice coats with lots of different shapes, styles and colours.

    A-wear have some nice coats in, but I don't think they look that warm.

    You could always try Pennys and Dunnes for something a little cheaper. Oh, and try TKMaxx, too. If you've got the time to route through all the stuff you never know what you might pick up.
