Why everyone's talking about this Boden coat

Quintessentially British brand Boden has a bit of a cult following - which includes Kate Middleton FYI - so whenever it drops a limited edition collection, people go a bit crazy for it.

Case in point, the Boden 10 edit, which launched yesterday. Essentially, it's a must-have curation of the 10 styles you need for spring.

From classic suiting with a contemporary twist to essential knits, a wear everywhere jumpsuit and versatile dress shapes, the capsule has got your new season sorted, but there is one piece in particular that has got everyone's attention.

The classic trench with contrast stripes and statement Union Jack lining is the ideal trans-seasonal trench coat, and has been going down a treat on Instagram.

Since Boden posted it on its page, it's gotten over a 1,000 likes and 52 comments, ranging from 'this coat makes me weak at the knees' to 'this is so stunning, love it'.

So all in all, pretty positive. I love the fun twist on an otherwise classic item, and at £160, it's definitely an investment piece you'll wear season after season.
