The parka’s most famous season in the sun was in the early 1960s, when they fuelled the Mod Revolution.

Young people dressed sharp, listened to soul and RnB, and fought epic battles with leather-jacketed rockers.

You needn’t do that, but you can dress warm and look cool doing it. Invented by the Inuits (the Eskimos that is), the parka still performs that basic function of cutting the wind chill.

There is a certain rugged romance to the parka, and it looks hot when accessorised with belts and the ubiquitous hood.

This is it. There isn’t a cooler way to fight the chill this winter than a rakishly cut overcoat and setting it off with a scarf or a waistcoat.

An exposed neck is often the chink in your armour that a biting winter wind pounces upon.

So, go ahead and cover ‘em up with fancy scarves and high-neck waistcoats

Long tall sally

Turn heads and raise temperatures in these femme fatale boots this winter.

While the leather keeps your feet insulated, the powerful finish keeps them begging for more.

These boots are certainly made for walking!
