H&M's £40 trench coat goes viral as TikTokers call it the 'perfect' spring jacket

An H&M trench coat has gone viral after TikToker Courtney_1111_ shared how amazing it looked on her account as she tried on the jacket.

The double-breasted trench coat, £39.99 here, is available both in-store and on H&M online, and comes in both black and a classic light beige colour. The thigh-length jacket features oversized lapels and tortoiseshell-style buttons, with a detachable belt to help cinch in the waist and give it some shape.

Courtney shared the video of her showing what the jacket looks like on the website, before showing her trying it on so her followers can see how it looks in real life. The jacket was a big hit with her followers, with one gushing “Omg this is stunning!” whilst another said: “This is perfect!!!”. She also replied to one person asking about sizing, sharing that she’d purchased a size small and was 5’6” for a length reference.

Trench coats have always been a classic spring jacket, as they’re lightweight enough to avoid overheating, but still warm enough to protect you against the chilly weather that we haven’t quite managed to get rid of just yet.

Pamela Anderson also recently declared that the trench coat was back and was the jacket for spring, after she was photographed in an oversized beige trench coat, pairing it with a bright blue shirt, strappy heels, and a matching beige mini skirt. Jennifer Lawrence is another celeb who’s proved just how effortless this style of jacket is after recently being spotted pairing it with a simple white T-shirt, wide leg brown trousers, and some beige Adidas trainers.

Considering how timeless the trench coat is, plenty of different versions have made their way online in recent weeks. This longer H&M trench coat, also £39.99 here, gives a more classic silhouette, but as well as being available in both light and dark beige, it’s also available in a bright tomato red that puts a fresh spin on the style.

Trench coats don’t have to just be beige

Different prints and fabrics can also give a fresh take on a trench coat

ASOS also offer a huge range of different styles of trench coats, including other colour variations, such as this ecru coloured trench coat from Stradivarius, £79.99 here, and this blue denim version of a classic trench, £88 here.

Prints are also a good way to update the look, like this check print trench coat from the ASOS Design range, £75 here, or you can go all out with this cow print jacket from Nasty Gal, which is currently on sale for £74.95 here.

Finally, for an ultra-modern take on the style, go for a leather trench coat. Although you might immediately think of The Matrix, we promise a leather version can look incredibly chic. If you don’t believe us, this stone coloured leather trench from Misspap on Boohoo, £54 here, and this burgundy patent leather trench coat from Miss Selfridge, £79.99 here, are both proof that you can pull off a leather trench coat effortlessly.
