Mere days into January,The Traitors returned for its second season. And if you haven't been hooked on the first series of the reality game show, what on earth are you doing?! With hauntingly good tension, it is deliciously addictive stuff. And other than the heart-thumping round table scenes and unbearable cliffhangers, one thing we can't peel our eyes away from is Claudia Winkleman's style.

There are even more 'haute country' outfits than the first time round. While we've already seen some great jumpers, coats and boots from Winkleman in series two, this week sees the release of the final three episodes – and you can bet that Winkleman has saved some of her best looks until last.

Sticking with her love of excellent knitwear from independent brands, Winkleman wore an olive jumper from Lauren Aston Designs, where you can buy your very own knit kit in order to make your very own version. She wears it with her favourite WARDROBE.NYC leggings and the Officine Générale coat we've seen before. While the coat has now sold out, this one from Zara will give you similar vibes.

Then, there's a major fashion moment as Winkleman appears in a truly theatrical, floor-sweeping fringed coat by Saint Laurent. Winkleman is, as always, working with her brilliant stylist, Sinead McKeefry, who had told. usto watch out for the 'Saint Laurent moment' in the series. It certainly has not disappointed. The added point of genius? Winkleman wears the coat with her Hunter wellies.

One of the most-Googled outfits included a red jumper from Mr Mittens, a Belgian-Australian knitwear brand, available for £400. The chunky scarf Winkleman wore with it, meanwhile, is knitted by independent label Rose & Wül, which creates amazing accessories from the highest quality merino wool.

Some other excellent outfits from earlier episodes of the show include a longer version of Le Kilt's Micro Mini Mohair Kilt. Nearly sold out, there's an almost-identical style still available in all sizes at Matches. As for her cream cable knit? It's from Albaray, but has sadly now sold out.

In episode five of the show, Winkleman's outfits married luxury brands like The Row and Burberry with high street labels such as L.K.Bennett and Me + Em. There's even a pair of black Spanx leggings – not an item you'd necessarily equate with great style but, worn with a tailored jacket from Anna Mason and boots from Paris Texas, it's a winning combination. In episode six, there's a phenomenal floor-length Herringbone tweed coat from Bella Freud. Now mostly sold out (it's still available in a size 16, though), there is a great alternative on the high street.

More Saint Laurent comes in the form of Winkleman's velvet blazer, paired with a blouse from Self Portrait that's currently in the sale. The genius touch? These pieces were worn with Commando's velvet leggings and Winkleman's favourite Dr. Martens, which she has described as 'the best boot of all time'.

There's also heaps of glorious cashmere (most of it from Brora), some truly brilliant coats, knits sourced from the menswear department and, of course, many pairs of Hunter wellies. McKeefry told us that, since the first series of the show, she's had 'friends in retail saying people are coming in and asking for ‘Claudia in The Traitors look’ and my friends in the fashion crowd have been loving it, too.'

So, how did McKeefry approach another series of the show?  'I think because [Claudia and I] enjoyed being back in the process, we had our inspirations and knew what our look wanted to be... Ronnie Corbett meets Princess Anne meets Madonna (in the Guy Ritchie days!)'

In episode 4, the presenter wears her favourite stomper boots with a dress from The Vampire's Wife. With its polka dots and playfully ruffled hemline, it's just the thing for adding some cheer to January, especially as you can wear it with opaque tights like Winkleman.

And if dresses aren't your thing, Winkleman has also been making a case for substituting more restrictive styles of trouser for – believe it or not – jodhpur-style leggings. Cosy and comfy, they could be just what your January needs.

The best news? From her Argyle knitted vest to her Holland Cooper coat and her cable knit with smilie elbow patches, most of Winkleman's outfits are shoppable now.

To describe Saint Laurent's fringed long coat as a statement piece might be something of an understatement. It's certainly an investment but, considering it's almost sold out, clearly one some are willing to make. Think of it as your shortcut to event dressing; it doesn't even matter what you're wearing underneath when you have a coat this glorious.

Throwing an olive green coat over her wool check trousers and super-soft jumper from Brora – and then over her knit/leggings combo – Winkleman shows us that dressing for comfort needn't be scruffy. Her Officine Générale coat has sadly now sold out but this alternative from Zara will give you similar vibes – and for much less.

Winkleman wears these leggings tucked into Hunter boots and paired with a great jumper several times in series two. The bad news is that they have almost sold out but if you're quick, you may just be able to get your hands on the last remaining pieces. They're also available in size L here.

It looks like the jumper Winkleman wears with her skirt from Le Kilt is this lovely knit from Albaray. Currently on sale, it's reduced from £89 to £55. Get it before it sells out.

Winkleman loves these boots so much that, on learning this particular style was being discontinued by Dr. Martens, wrote an open letter in The Times expressing her disappointment. But don't worry – there are still a few pairs left in select sizes, should you want to experience what Winkleman says is 'the best boot of all time'.

While this isn't the exact kilt Claudia wears (that one is available in limited sizes here), it's a slight variation on the same style.

Approximately two metres long and crafted from the most sumptuous merino wool, this scarf is made to order, and with almost every colour you can imagine to choose from. Ideal for the current cold snap, you'll wear this every winter.

If you want a similar style that's less than £100, Lauren Aston designs these oversized scarves and sells them via Not On The High Street. Just pick your colour and place your order.

Designed by the Belgian-Australian label renowned for perfect knits, this will see you through countless winters. Just pair with black jeans à la Winkleman. For a high street alternative, try this £32 jumper from ASOS.

For the 'funeral' task, Winkleman wore this Saint Laurent coat with her favourite Spanx leggings and Dr. Martens boots. It's certainly an investment but, given the colour and silhouette, it's one that will last forever.

While this isn't the exact coat Winkleman wears in episode six (hers is actually from Bella Freud, now only available in a size 16) this is a very good – and more affordable – alternative.

Winkleman wears this under her cardigan from The Row with trousers from Dubarry of Ireland. It's still in stock and, happily, there's 30% off right now.

A Burberry trench is always in style – Winkleman's is actually from the men's collection, making it slightly oversized on her and therefore a genius fit.

The last word in quiet luxury, The Row's cardigan is currently in the sale with 50% off. It is, however, still expensive, so if you want something similar on a high street budget, try this one from Arket.

These trousers are available in many different shades, just in case Winkleman's dark green style aren't your colour.

These may be an investment but they're certainly one that will last – and they'll never go out of style. Wear them every year and with just about anything.

Winkleman actually wore the pink version of this L.K.Bennett shirt but, as it's nearly sold out, you'll be pleased to know this cream version – complete with pearly buttons – is still in stock in all sizes.

As we know, Winkleman loves a good pair of leggings. The style she wears in episode five are actually from SPANX – they're extra stretchy, which means they're extra comfortable.

The ultimate ankle boots, try these with leggings and a blazer á la Winkleman for a cool twist on tailoring.

Winkleman knows a good blazer when she sees one. This wool mulberry style is by Anna Mason and is impeccably made. It's the sort of thing that will always make you feel pulled together.

If you want all the comfort of leggings but an outfit that still looks like you've made some effort, these will be your new favourite thing. Winkleman wore hers with Dr. Martens and a chic blouse.

Who said you couldn't wear velvet on velvet? Sinead McKeefry styled this classic Saint Laurent blazer with Commando's velvet leggings and this is about the most low-maintenance-but-still-glamorous party outfit you could get.

You can't really go wrong, especially in the Scottish Highlands, with cashmere. This jumper is also on sale and will quickly become your winter staple for the rest of time – no exaggeration.

Winkleman (and her stylist McKeefry) made the genius decision to tuck these trousers into her wellies but they'd also make for excellent workwear, too, if paired with heeled boots and a crisp white shirt. Now sold out in all sizes, you can sign up for notifications so that you don't miss out when these trousers are back in stock.

Seen in episode two of the new series, this jumper has been causing quite a stir. It's actually from menswear brand KAPITAL. This cable knit features the brand's smilie logo on the elbows and is already sold out at most online stockists. It's still available in brown, however, if you can't live without it.

In many of the outdoor scenes, Winkleman can be seen sporting a pair of cashmere wrist warmers, which her stylist Sinead McKeefry said are either from Brora or Johnston's of Elgin. This pair looks extremely similar to the style seen in the first episode – and they're less than £60 for pure Scottish cashmere.

McKeefry also mentions these boots as one of her favourite pieces from the show that Winkleman wears. Right now, they're on sale at Net-a-Porter.

Layered over a white shirt and black jeans, Winkleman wore a classic Argyle vest from Purdey London. Sadly, her exact style has sold out but this alternative colour combo is still in stock – and on sale.

In the first episode of the new series, Winkleman is once again making wellies look chic. This pair is from Hunter.

A brand loved by the Princess of Wales (who has also worn this exact coat), Holland Cooper makes timeless, classic investment pieces that will stay in your wardrobe forever. No doubt this is the first of many excellent coats we see on series two of The Traitors.

According to McKeefry, these ankle boots were a 'staple' of Winkleman's series two wardrobe. 'We had in all the colour ways as well as in both suede and leather,' she says.

The now-famous cape is from Luxury Family Affair and is available in a range of colours should you want to deviate from Winkleman's favourite black.

With her English country-chic outfits, the first series saw the presenter turn away from her usual gothic dresses and blazer combos towards tweed and wellies, something we might not have typically expected to see Claudia wearing. She was dressed up in oversized longline coats, cowboy boots and wrist-warmers, as well as luxe polo necks that all made for truly excellent outfits. Even better? There were lots of Zara buys in there, proving that not even celebrities can resist the allure of the high street.
