Sure,puffer jackets and parkashave their place in the winter, but you can’t beat a wool coat when you need to stay warm while maintaining a more elevated look.

After spottingKatie Holmesin a long wool coat during New York City’s early cold snap, we were excited to seeKate Middletonwearing a similar style in London last week. While Holmes went for a classic New Yorker style with black while walking to her current gig on Broadway,Kate’s double-breasted coatwas a burgundy-hued show-stopper that embodied the holiday spirit.

This single-breasted coat from Amazon differs from Kate’s a bit in its softer, less formal look. Even so, the classic notched lapel and timeless silhouette offer up a sophisticated appearance overall. More than 100 have been sold in the past month alone, and thanks to the 45 percent off discount, that number will probably continue to climb.

Women’s Faux Wool Topcoat - A New Day™

Made with faux wool, this calf-length peacoat has a couple of details we love, including its price. The silky burgundy lining will catch eyes every time you take the jacket off, put it on, or simply wear it unbuttoned. The slit up the back is stylish, but it’ll also help you move more freely. Reviewers love the stylishly oversized fit that’s flattering without looking too bulky.

Kate’s burgundy coat had an hourglass shape that’s similar to this Cole Haan wrap coat, which is $250 off today.
