Much of the high street's retro outerwear opts for a more formal, tailored look. If you're looking for something a little more casual, however, there's no shortage of vintage inspiration to be found. This Cromwell Striped Pea Coat from Urban Outfitters has all the sixties appeal of full length coats, while remaining casual enough to pair with your everyday wardrobe.

Cord peacoat jacket by Stussy
Stussy doesn't necessarily come to mind when you think of classic or retro, but this Stussy cord peacoat jacket certainly fit the bill.
Ideal for autumnal days, this is a classic peacoat with a twist, a slighly shorter cut, but with plenty of warmth from that cord construction and padded polyester lining. There's also a thick flock collar, mock double breast button fastening and double inner sleeve cuff design.
All of that for £159.99. A shot of the rear over the page.
