Worrying Style Trends: The Duffel Coat

There is a simply system for ascertaining whether or not you should wear a duffel coat, and it involves pondering the following points:

Are you:
a) Seven years old?
b) Paddington Bear?
c) A seven year old fan of Paddington Bear?

If you have answered ‘yes’ to any of the above you may wear a duffel coat. Otherwise, you probably shouldn’t. I mean, what next? Are you going to get yellow tartan trousers and a matching scarf and dress like Rupert Bear? Or maybe go for the Donald Duck look and put on a sailor’s outfit and hat, yet inexplicably forget to accessorise them with any trousers?! Or just go out dressed in a Tellytubbies costume?!?! I mean, what next?!?!
