Let's face it the British weather is pretty unpredictable at the best of times but autumn brings with it the likelihood of lots of showers and a quick drop in temperature. This is not the time for your wardrobe to let you down. It's essential to stock up on staple coats and jackets to protect you from the elements.
M&S' Thermowarmth™ Hooded Puffer Gilet £35 here provides the perfect solution. Not only is it a versatile layering piece for when the temperature drops (wear over light knits and polo necks), but the sleeveless jacket has been designed to be your best friend this autumn. The clever Thermowarmth™ innovation will help to keep you warm, whilst the Stormwear™ technology is made with an innovative finish to protect from light rain showers too.
Plus, if this savvy innovation wasn't enough to pull at your purse strings, the gilet comes in at an affordable £35, an unbeatable price for a piece that has been praised for its 'quality' by shoppers who have already been quick to snap it up.

Another was pleasantly surprised with their order "I opened the bag with trepidation as so many online purchases are disappointing... The fabric felt soft and lovely, the colour was perfect. It was light, warm and flattering. Well done MandS!" Some customers loved the design so much that they have snapped up the midnight navy, which you can also purchase for £35 here.
