Winter warmers
Wrap up in this season's winter warmers. Lisa Haynes looks at the hottest coats on the high street and how they'll flatter your figure.
By Lisa Haynes.
Your days of outdoor flimsy jackets and cropped cardigans are severely numbered, as it's almost time for the switch.
The winter coat is so much more than your armour against the elements. This trusty staple has the ability to update an entire seasonal wardrobe and flatter your figure.
So get ready to focus on the serious fashion business of finding your wardrobe central heating system before the best ones sell out.
Fashion icon Dannii Minogue, who recently launched her My Style book (Simon and Schuster, £19.99) lists the coat in her top five wardrobe staples: "A coat is potentially one of the most expensive pieces you will ever purchase, so above all, it should be functional.
"That means warm, a cut and shape that suits you, and that goes with as many other pieces in your wardrobe as possible.

Stylish Quilts
What is it about a quilt that seems to warm the heart as much as it does the body?
There is definitely something about a quilt that speaks to the heart, evoking a strong emotional response. Is it the workmanship, the pattern, the person who made it, or maybe its history?
Throughout history, quilts have served as decoration, gifts and artistic expression. People have crafted quilts to commemorate special occasions and to document social events. And yet, the favourite use of a quilt is probably for bedding.
Quilts are classic pieces of art that last for years. Unlike a duvet or comforter, a quilt can never go out of style. Often handed down from generation to generation, quilts are considered heirlooms.
It’s quite easy to dress quilts up or down. Patchwork quilts grant a cosy feel to any room, while solid, embroidered quilts in combination with beaded accent pillows lend a more elegant look. You can find a quilt to fit almost any décor....
Patchwork inspired projects by Cath Kidston « The Fabric Loft
Most of the time when I think of patchwork I think of new modern patterns or traditional simple patterns with contemporary fabrics. I had almost forgotten that the roots of patchwork was not only to create an heirloom quilt, but to make the most out of fabrics in times long before mass production.
