Acceptable Clothing when its cold in the office?

Hello fellow monkeys,

Just for context I am currently interning at a small private equity firm in Mayfair. The problem is I get very cold wearing just a suit and would feel stupid wearing my overcoat at my desk. I was wondering what you guys think would be acceptable / look good. I would just copy the others solutions to this problem but none of the others seem to feel the cold as they are all in shirts and trousers. Occasionally the partners will wear something super casual but I wouldn't feel comfortable being so casual when all the associates are in shirts.

Best
John

 

I'm in a similar position - most of my coworkers don't wear suits, just slacks/shirt/tie optional. But yeah, my spring/summer jacket is just wear a suit except on casual friday.
