EastEnders' Louisa Lytton says she 'got stopped all day' in Sainsbury's £36 coat

Have you ever found a piece of clothing so good that it quite literally stops traffic? Former EastEnders star Louisa Lytton has– and the item is an absolute bargain, at that.

Posting her look to Instagram as a carousel, the 36 year old says she wasn't about to let the stormy weather stop her from capturing the incredible coat she picked up from a supermarket brand. She also pens that she was "stopped all day" by people who wanted to know where the buy was from.

The exact jacket Louisa wears is Sainsbury Tu's Brown Patent Faux Leather Coat, which is on sale for £36 (down from £45) and miraculously still in stock in all sizes from XS to XXL. Though the buy is perfect for anyone looking for a new transitional weather piece to add to their autumn wardrobes, the soapstar shares her delight at it being "such a good length" for petite girls like her, despite it not being marked as a petite range item.

The Brown Patent Coathas a high-shine finish that gives it a sleek, modern look, while the deep chocolate tone (very on trend for A/W 25) keeps it wearable for every day. It’s fully lined and surprisingly soft, with roomy pockets and a relaxed shape that’s easy to throw on over knits or dresses. It’s a coat that definitely looks far more expensive than its price tag.

While this certainly is a seasonal gem we'd suggest adding to your virtual basket while stock remains, other celebs have been sharing their must-have autumn finds this week, and there are some excellent suggestions. Just last night, Kate Garraway gave us some major Highland dressing inspiration in a blue and brown check coat that looks just like Boohoo's 2 in 1 Scarf Check Wool Look Coat. The buy is £45 and is perfect for anyone wanting to inject a bit of colour into their wardrobes.
