'For your commute, we'd like to direct you to Arket. Its 2-in-1 outerwear series is designed to cope with temperature changes, and look much more expensive than its £55 starting price.' February 2019 issue, page 39.

'A pac-a-mac might be space-efficient when you're glamping, but it doesn't exactly say 'stylish'. Look instead for a hooded parka that has pretty details like ruffles and a gentle flare to its shape - so much more flattering when you have to bundle layers underneath at night.' 17 June 2019, page 22.
