Brrr, it’s pretty miserable out, isn’t it? Yup, we’re coming to terms with the fact that summer is definitely over and winter is upon us. But one good thing about all these grey skies and rain is that IT’S TIME TO BUY A WINTER COAT. Whoop!

Whether you’re lusting after Simone Rocha’s Pepto-Bismol pink number (reality, Zara or M&S), or a wear-anywhere biker, your November ELLE is packed full of styles we love – and from just £75 too.

Here are 10 other reasons to buy the latest issue of your favourite mag. As if you needed them…

  1. Our cover star, the beautiful, intelligent and all-round inspirational Natalie Portman.

  2. Tom Hiddleston, who interviews his said beautiful, intelligent and all-round inspirational Thor co-star.

  3. We’ve rebranded feminism. Quite literally. We enlisted three award-winning advertising agencies, paired them with leading feminist thinkers, and asked them to sum up what feminism means today. Buy the issue, write your statement and tweet #iamawoman @ELLEUK. Join the debate now.

  4. ELLE Beauty #TrialATrend special. Sophie, Amy and Joely test out the catwalks key make-up trends. Trust us, they are wearable.

  5. Navy has dusted off its school uniform connotations to become THE COLOUR OF THE SEASON. We show you how to style it.

  6. It’s time to make friends with your thighs, because the boot of the season has landed, and it’s over the knee. Shop it here.

  7. Our columnists. From Victoria Coren to Lisa Eldridge, through Anne-Marie Curtis and Rebecca Lowthorpe, these women are opinionated, funny and knowledgeable. Use them wisely.

  8. Pages from my diary: the likes of Lauren Laverne, Celia Walden and Lottie Moggach open up their journals to ELLE. Moving, inspirational, heart-warming.

  9. Caz Moran, the very funny sister of Caitlin, writes exclusively for ELLE on cutting her own hair. Is it ever a good idea? We’ve tried it; the results were mixed.

  10. We reveal our top beauty picks under £50. From the £10 dark circle corrector to the £25 anti-ageing serum, they’re all tried, tested and trusted by us.
