Claudia Winkleman’s grey coat is from Princess Kate’s go-to brand

The Traitors might be over but fans are still searching for Claudia Winkleman’s outfits. One of the memorable looks saw Claudia in a pony tail on episode nine, she sported a chic brown wool coat, layered over a check shacket and black skinny jeans, creating the perfect cosy country look.
Sadly, the exact Me+Em wool coat Claudia wore is from a past season and no longer available. However, fear not, as Me+Em currently offers an almost identical Everyday Jumper Coat in rich brown, priced at £575.
Claudia shares her fondness for Me+Em with none other than Princess Kate. The Princess of Wales’ pink colour block dress from her visit at The Chelsea Flower Show in 2023 is also from Me+Em and of course, it has been out of stock for some time now. She also wore an Me+Em Breton long-sleeved top during a trip to New Zealand for a sailing competition and a few months later at a polo match in Gloucestershire.
Similar to Claudia’s coat, the newer version of Me+Em’s Short Luxe Wool-Blend Everyday Jumper Coat comes in a deep rich espresso colour with two functional chest pockets and two for keeping essentials. The long sleeves with fold back cuffs are exactly the same as Claudia’s; but instead of a double breasted row of buttons, it’s more relaxed with simple button fastening.
The style unites the cosiness of a jumper with the functionality of a coat, which would still complement Claudia’s wardrobe on The Traitors if you’re looking to emulate her style.
The Everyday Jumper Coat offers a contemporary spin on the traditional oversized coat. Made from an Italian wool-blend fabric, it boasts same modern relaxed silhouette for a flattering finish.
Another one, also from Me+Em would be the Check Wool Trench Coat, £550. The coat showcases two distinct check patterns in various areas, including the bottom lapel, underneath the upper lapel (visible when worn with the collar turned up), on the lining and the underside of the belt, according to the Mirror.
If you’re seeking a more minimalist grey coat like Claudia’s, there are some fantastic alternatives available. Bella Freud’s Jean Genet Coat is currently half price, reduced from £1250 to £625, and it’s the exact same coat Claudia wore in an earlier episode, paired with a standout lace dress in the woods.
In other options, H&M’s Handmade Wool-Blend Coat has been marked down from £189 to £133 and is available in both tan and dark grey. It features a similar belted silhouette, with a shawl collar and a cosy wool-blend material that’s ideal for winter.
Meanwhile, Nobody’s Child presents the Oversized Grey Double Breasted Wool Blend Coat for £229, which is perfect if you favour a more minimalist silhouette. Eschewing the trench coat-inspired details, it features a classic oversized silhouette and double breasted fastening up the front.

Fans of premium skincare products who prefer to wait for a bargain are in for a treat this weekend. Until 11.59pm on Sunday (February 16), Elemis enthusiasts can snag a four-piece collection of collagen products from the celebrity-loved brand with a huge price drop.
The Elemis Pro-Collagen and Dynamic Resurfacing 4 Piece Collection is packed with top-selling products worth £173.88. QVC sells the stash as a bundle at £123 but it has been reduced to £65.96 for this weekend only, making each product just £16.49, a fraction of the usual cost.
The four-piece set includes a 15ml bottle of the dynamic resurfacing gel mask, a 200ml bottle of the dynamic resurfacing facial wash, 60 Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads, and a 30ml tub of the Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30, which usually costs £50 per tub.
The latter is a beauty staple adored by celebrities and skincare aficionados alike, with fans including Kate Hudson and Molly-Mae Hague. Designed to help diminish the appearance of wrinkles while providing a hydration boost, the cream has been lauded for leaving skin smoother, firmer and protected, reports the Mirror.

This rich formula combines the benefits of three superfood extracts: padina pavonica, a marine algae that boosts hydration, porphyridium, and vitamin-rich chlorella. The gel-like cream also features ginkgo biloba, a powerful antioxidant, as well as rose and mimosa.
As a lightweight day cream, it absorbs quickly into the skin, providing a smooth base for makeup application.
With shoppers reporting noticeable results in just two weeks, this product is a customer favorite. On Lookfantastic, you can purchase a 50ml tub for £75.95, down from £95.
One reviewer raved: “I’ve been using this moisturiser for two weeks along with Elemis Pro-Collagen Moisture Essence and can see that fines lines on my face have significantly reduced. I’m late forties and have been searching for a lightweight day cream with spf that isn’t sticky or thick which combats signs of ageing. This moisturiser does it all. Lightly fragranced and easily absorbed it’s my new go to.”
Another reviewer praised the product, saying: “Nothing compares to this amazing cream, feels luxurious and hydrates my skin all day.”

Another must-have from this set is the Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads. Usually retailing at £46 for 60 pads, the company explains: “Gentle yet effective resurfacing pads deliver a measured dose of patented Tri-Enzyme Technology for smoother-looking skin. Formulated with Lactic Acid and Probiotic Ferment Complex, they are clinically proven to accelerate skin’s natural cell turnover in 28 days.”
Recommended for twice daily use, these exfoliating pads can help diminish the appearance of dark spots, pores, and uneven skin texture, their textured surface working to sweep away dead cells. Considered essential by beauty aficionados for elevating skincare rituals, customers have lauded them for giving ‘baby soft skin.’
The aroma and efficiency of the pads is often praised by shoppers, although one cautious four-star reviewer pointed out: “I like this product. It does make my face feel nice afterwards. I do have somewhat sensitive skin so it made it a little red. I wish the pads were a bit thicker though since one didn’t feel enough. The scent is good.”
The brand recommends pairing it with Elemis’ facial wash, usually priced at £40 direct from Elemis, to achieve smooth, clean, and radiantly beautiful skin. The cleanser effectively removes pollutants, dirt, and makeup using its potent Tri-Enzyme Technology, combined with the antioxidative prowess of Moringa and the moisture of White Truffle.
Meanwhile, the last item in the set is perfect for those seeking some self-care. The Elemis gel mask, usually priced at £60 for a 50ml tube, promises to ‘renew, resurface and refine’ your skin, leaving it smoother in just ten minutes. The mask is formulated with papain (from papaya), shea butter, bamboo, burdock root, white truffle and Amazonian acerola cherry extracts, all aimed at reducing the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin tone.
QVC advises that a tingling sensation is normal when using this product. One customer likened it to a ‘menthol effect’, describing it as ‘cooling and calming’.

However, not everyone was satisfied with the mask’s coverage. Some customers reported needing more than a pea-sized amount, which led to the product being used up quickly.
One customer expressed their disappointment: “I am disappointed to say that when I first squeezed the product out it already felt like the bottle was half full (although the foil was on so it clearly hadn’t been used). It took more than a pea size amount to cover my face and I am sceptical that this product will last more than 5 uses making it around 4.20 a mask, expensive.”
Despite this, they acknowledged the results: “My skin the day after use sage was soft, radiant and without massive breakouts.”
Priced at just over £65 for the four-piece set, the limited edition bundle is an affordable way to try all the products before committing to a full-size purchase. You can get the four-piece set from QVC here – but be quick, this offer is only valid until 11.59pm on Sunday, 16 February.

Elsewhere, if you’re in the market for a skincare set that promises youthful, silky smooth skin, Nip + Fab’s Ageless Radiance Morning Skincare Routine Kit for Normal Mature Skin, valued at £147.65, is available for £74.95 here. In addition, No7’s Restore and Renew Multi Action Skincare Collection offers a saving of £61.55 and is priced at £39.95 for five different products from its range.

Uniqlo’s latest trending bag looks a lot like a designer

Uniqlo has become a go-to for stylish yet sturdy and affordable basics, not least its bag selection. You’ve probably seen the viral Uniqlo crossbody shoulder bag, a £15 half-circle pouch that has been lauded thanks to its versatile design and ability to store way more than you might expect.
Now, the brand has upped its game with the release of a new trendy bag that is very similar to a designer alternative – but is almost £600 cheaper.
The unisex rectangular shoulder bag has caused something of a buzz among fashion enthusiasts, including my partner, who is a fan of streetwear (and a bit of a fiend for a designer label). “I spotted the Uniqlo item in a sponsored advert on Instagram before it had been released,” he explained. “It looked like the type of thing I was after and reminded me of a bag by the brand Porter.”
For the uninitiated, Porter is a Japanese brand housed under Yoshida & Co., known for its bags inspired by military MA-1 bomber jackets. Along with their nylon exterior, they can also be recognised from the small rectangular patch sewn onto them with the brand name “Porter”.
My partner, who has requested to remain anonymous, explained: “I’d always liked them, but they seem way too expensive.”
The trendy Porter Tanker bags retail anywhere from £200 to £620, so it’s no surprise the £24.90 alternative caught his eye.
The other issue with the Porter bag is that it can be quite hard to source in the UK. Retailers, including END and Ssense, stock the brand, but they can sell out quickly. If not, you have to turn to re-sell sites such as eBay and Vinted. Both the khaki and black versions of Uniqlo’s Multi Pocket Shoulder Bag are currently available on the website.
The Uniqlo option offers a similar colour scheme, coming in both khaki and black. It also has two rectangular front pockets whose placement almost mirrors that of the Porter Tanker.
Both bags also feature a zip opening and adjustable strap. Perhaps the only significant difference is that the Uniqlo option has cheaper-looking hardware and a slightly darker khaki colour. Of course, even if you’re not bothered about designer names, it’s still a great purchase thanks to its versatility, taking you from the office to a casual day out with ease.
“It can fit a 13-inch Macbook, has good compartments and would fit all my daily essentials,” my partner told me.
Each day, he has been able to pack his MacBook and charger, along with his wallet, a book, lunch, aftershave, and his wallet. Handy dividers in the main compartment can be used to protect tech items, such as a laptop or hard drive, while internal side pockets are good for storing any smaller goods.
Keys, a phone, and headphones can be popped into one of the front zipped compartments, while a water bottle slots nearly into the side storage area. Even then, there is still room left over. “Perhaps the only downside is that I wouldn’t be able to fit in anything from the supermarket on my way home,” he added.
“I like the cross-body style over a tote bag so I can have my hands free, making walking comfortable or even cycling into work. It still isn’t as comfortable as cycling with a backpack, but it’s a lot more stylish.”

M&S £29 top dubbed ‘jumper for all seasons’ and ‘lovely for warm days’

Marks and Spencer has launched a chic loose-knit jumper that’s just the ticket for the spring-summer season, with eager shoppers saying they ‘can’t wait for warmer weather to show it off’. Priced at a reasonable £29.50, the Cotton Blend Crew Neck Short Jumper is available in vibrant marmalade orange and classic ivory.
This breezy knit has been dubbed by one shopper as ‘the jumper for all seasons’ and is perfect for draping over vests, bikinis, or floaty summer dresses.
Crafted from a cosy cotton blend with a touch of wool for that extra warmth, the jumper offers a regular fit, complete with a timeless crew neck and an open-stitch pattern that adds a breathable quality. M&S customers have lavished the jumper with compliments, calling it ‘stylish for all ages’ and a fabulous match for denim.
One delighted customer shared: “Lovely for summer. Good value and quality, can’t wait for warmer weather to show it off.”
Another happy buyer commented: “This is the jumper for all seasons will be cool enough in warmer weather but also fine for now with something underneath for extra warmth. Sleeves were a bit too long but I have that problem on most jumpers unless it’s a petite size. It’s a lovely jumper, would recommend,” reports Birmingham Live.
A third shopper praised its versatility: “Stylish jumper for all ages. Lovely cotton jumper good quality. Can be worn on its own or with camisole. Good for cool summer day.”
Another fan couldn’t resist the allure, saying: “This is a perfect layering jumper for the transition to spring/summer. I got the marmalade colour and didn’t wait to wear it.”
Yet, a few shoppers did have concerns regarding the fit, specifically about the sleeve length. One buyer pointed out the issue by commenting, “I really like this cotton jumper and will be great to wear now and into the spring. I bought the extra small as it seems to come up large and the sleeves are still a bit long but it is a shorter boxy shape which suits me.”
In praise of the garment, another satisfied customer gushed, “Love, love, love it. Really lovely top for warmer days – looks great with jeans – true to size.”
The jumper is available in sizes from Extra Small to Extra Large and one shopper shared her thoughts on the fit: “Really nice cotton jumper, I bought the orange colour and it’s really nice, size-wise I would say big, I ordered a extra small and it fits perfectly and I’m a size 8-10.”
For those interested in stepping out in style as temperatures rise, the Cotton Blend Crew Neck Short Jumper can be snapped up for £29.50 directly from the M&S website. Those seeking alternative options might consider Roman’s Green Ombre Openwork Knit Jumper at £38, or snag a bargain with Mango’s Combined Crochet Sweater, currently on sale for £17.99.
