‘Looks more designer than high street’ fashion fans rave about M&S coat that’s perfect for staying dry in April showers
IT'S that time of year that's a nightmare when it comes to choosing what to wear.
One second it's blue skies and sunshine, and the next it's cloudy and raining.
But there's a new jacket fashion fans are raving about to keep them dry during the April showers, and it's from Marks & Spencer.
The hooded parka coat, featured in TV adverts for the store in recent months, comes in two colours and five sizes, and features water-repellent technology.
And it's so chic that people are saying it looks a LOT more expensive than its £69 price tag.
"This is a gorgeous jacket which looks great and is on trend," one wrote.

"I receive so many compliments when wearing this.
"It’s such a good price as it looks more designer than high street."
"Love this," another said.
"It’s oversized (I’m a 16/18 and got this in an XL but a L would have been fine) and an unusual shape (quite wide on the body) but looks great on.
"So good that my daughter has been borrowing it and taken it away with her on a trip to Milan! (She’s not keeping it!)"
"I absolutely love the colour & after spending a couple of years wanting a mac but never making my mind up this is a really good buy that I will use time and time again," a third wrote.
"I love the length & hood.
"Just worn it for a couple of days in London and it really did stand up to the rain we had! Perfect!"
"I really didn't need another jacket but this one looks so stylish and is perfect for this weather," someone else said.
"Loose fit, I'm a 5 foot 2 size 10 - Small.
"Gives a lovely soft drape effect - the cut is ideal for a loose fit without looking swamped if you're small."
As another praised the "really lovely fabric and length".
