These five winter must-haves are on sale for a limited time and include stylish coats, a cosy cardigan and sparkly heels

Fashion fans wanting to give their winter wardrobe a refresh are in luck, as New Look's latest collection includes stunning yet cosy clothing perfect for this time of year. Whether you need a stylish new coat, a cosy cardigan or a gorgeous pair of heels for party season, the retailer has you covered.

New Look is currently offering up to 40% off many of its winter must-haves, so you can get your hands on a great deal. The Brown Leopard Print Coat is sure to be a statement piece in your wardrobe and goes beautifully with any outfit, from tailored trousers and a snug jumper, to a cute dress and heels.

Originally priced at £79.99, the stunning fully-lined coat is now £59.99 and comes in sizes six to 14. Made from a soft brushed fabric, the garment is a relaxed fit and has dropped shoulders, side slip pockets and a three-button fastening.

One delighted New Look customer awarded the coat five stars and said: "Absolutely love this coat, smart but fun. Worn it to work and for nights out. Feels so soft and many people have commented on what a gorgeous coat I have. I felt it was slightly oversized, so as I am in between sizes, I went down a size which fits great."

If you're on the look out for a new cosy cardigan with a difference, New Look's Looped Thread Cardigan is a great choice. Available in three colours - cream, black and brown - and sizes small to extra large, this knitwear is quite unlike any I've seen before.

The cropped cardigan is designed to finish just below the waist and has thick looped threads all over it, giving a truly unique look. Whether you pair it with trousers or a skirt, it's sure to be the stand-out piece of your ensemble.

The cardi has a neat crew neckline and is fastened by two hook and eyes at the top of the garment, allowing you to show off your top or dress underneath. Thanks to New Look's 25% discount, the knitwear currently costs £29.99, down from £39.99.

As the cardigan is new, there are no reviews on the website. However, it's worth noting that the loop detailing may pull easily, so you'll want to be careful when removing jackets, handbags or anything else that could snag it.

Another New Look coat that I am totally in love with is the Burgundy Leather-Look Faux Fur Coat. The on-trend colour paired with the luxurious faux fur collar and cuffs makes the garment look much more expensive than it is.

Usually retailing for £89.99, the glamorous lined coat can now be yours for £67.49. It's currently available in sizes 10, 12 and 14, and has handy side pockets and a belt fastening to cinch in your waist if desired.

The coat boasts an impressive overall rating of 4.9 out of five on the New Look website. One thrilled buyer commented: "I love this coat, I'd seen it on social media and ordered it the day it appeared, and I can honestly say it's gorgeous. Great fit and excellent quality."

They did, however, find the garment was missing one thing. They explained: "I just wish it had an inside press stud or some way to fasten the coat as well as the belt, as I don't think the belt will stay closed."

If you're after a shorter fur coat that's sure to keep you feeling snug over the winter, New Look's White Leopard Print Faux Fur Coat is a stunning option. With a whopping 40% off bringing the price down from £69.99 to £41.99, it's an absolute steal.

Available in sizes six to 22, the faux fur coat has a 'warming design', making it the perfect layer for when temperatures drop. The garment is fully lined and has a front zip with a standing collar to keep the winter chill off your neck.

With an overall rating of five stars on the New Look website, it's safe to say the leopard print coat is a winner. A delighted shopper wrote: "A perfect fit, it can be dressed casually or for a going out vibe. I've had so many compliments on it."

Everybody needs a beautiful yet comfortable pair of heels to see them through the party season. New Look's Leopard Print Diamanté Bow Court Shoes are sure to turn heads, whether it's for a festive get together, on Christmas Day itself or for a New Year's Eve celebration.

Available in sizes three to nine, the stunning shoes have a small stiletto heel and a buckle strap fastening to ensure your feet don't slip while you dance the night away. The striking pointed-toe heels have a large glitzy silver diamanté bow on each shoe, adding a touch of bling to any outfit.

You can get 25% off the court heels for a limited time, bringing the price down from £37.99 to £28.49. They've earned a respectable average rating of 4.8 out of five on the New Look website, with not one person having a bad word to say about them.

One satisfied buyer said: "Bought these shoes to go with my Christmas outfit and they didn't disappoint. Great quality shoes and so comfortable. I thought they might come up small due to the design, but they didn't. I love them."
