Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

As winter draws in, a nice snuggly coat is a good thing to have. And this Amanda Wakeley shearling (sheepskin) coat is a glorious thing. If I had a coat like this, I should always wish for winter. It's very long, wraps round your body like a lover and can be belted tight or just left to trail behind you ( ... like a lover). Amanda Wakeley is a relatively new designer who launched her label five years ago after designing for private clients. Her designs have a golden screen glamour to them (had this been the Forties you could imagine Davis and Crawford being among her clientele). So it's no surprise that she won the Glamour Award at the British Fashion Awards for two years in a row, in 1992 and 1993
