So the sleet, snow and rain has arrived in the UK, and what better way to protect oneself from the typically dreary winter weather than with a Brit brand synonymous with the ultimate cover-up: the classic Burberry trench coat.

The trench has always been a trusty friend in protecting us from the elements: its long length and sturdy fabric shield our outfits from the wind and rain, whilst its double breasted fit and belt create a fit and flare shape – also know as The Most Flattering Fit.

And ever since Christopher Bailey took the helm at Burberry, the trench coat has gained a whole new level of cult following. Bailey has taken the traditional trench and told a new story with it every season.

This honey Kensington trench is ideal for this season: its contrasting collar is sleek and modern, whilst its honey hue is a lasting classic choice.

Rain or shine, this trench will keep us looking chic for years to come.

Burberry Honey Kensington trench, £1,089, available at Stylebop.
