1-2. The red coat
This is going back. Basically it is too big, despite being the smallest size. The second photo attempts to show how much I can grab at the back. Also the design details just look too overwhelming on my shortish frame.

3 checked sweatshirt material jacket
I like this and will keep it. Though I bought it for around the house, I think it is okay to wear casually as well

4. Striped blazer. - not sure. I like the construction and quality of the blazer but again, wish it came one size smaller.

Anne, I like the striped blazer on you. I can't comment on the fit; I think Angie says its the shoulders that are imperative to get right. the plaid jacket also looks a little big on you? It's a shame about the red coat; the colour is gorgeous!

I'm sorry about the coat (I know I'm one of those who pushed for it) -- it's gorgeous but a NO can do. I do like the striped blazer on you, but you will know fit better than I can from a photo. It appears to fit better than the checked jacket, but that also depends on what you wear underneath. Nice buys in general though.

I love that plaid coat. That looks like a perfect casual MOTG piece. The striped blazer is greeat too.
That red is gorgeous,but I agree that the lapels are also a bit overwhelming on you. I'm sure you'll find a red coat to work for you.

Lynne - I think the shoulders are okay on the striped blazers. I'd like it a little smaller around the torso. Maybe the sleeves are too long? I would have gone smaller with the plaid jacket but the size was sold out - I guess I am not too worried with that one because it is soft and casual.

Rosee - the things that made me so tempted by the coat (and no doubt added to your encouragement) looked great on a tall and probably pinned back model. Just not on me. Especially since it was more than I planned on spending and also because I want this coat to be my main wool coat for 5 years and wonder if I would get sick of the features. I agree with you that the striped blazer looks good in the photo - I was pleased by that. I wouldn't normally wear it with jeggings though.

Kim - thanks! The good thing is that I am not desperate for this coat. My pink one will do until I find one that is better in every way.

What a pity :(. The red coat had great potential, but its just a little too voluminous.

NIce striped blazer!

KILLER do, Anne.

Thanks Angie. What do you think of the sleeve length on the blazer?

Such a shame about the coat, Anne, it did have a lot of potential. I like the checked jacket, lovely colours on you and the striped blazer is fun too. How about scrunching the sleeves?

Thanks for the pics Anne. What a shame the red coat didn't work out - it had so much potential. I like the stripe blazer!

Thanks Inge and An

Ah, that red coat! What a great color on you. Such a pity about the fit, because it is very dramatic and lovely.

I love the striped blazer, not as in love with the plaid but it fits well from what I can see and is a nice casual piece. Agree your hair is KILLER!

It is a shame that the red didn't work out. It is a beautiful color for you.

I think the striped jacket fits perfectly and looks great on you. I hope you decide to keep it.

Oh Anne, what a bummer about the red coat. Such a shame there is no smaller size!

I agree that the striped blazer looks lovely though - really makes me want to copy you and order it too. What do you plan on wearing it with? Dresses? Other pants?

The sweatshirt looks lovely and cosy. If your weather is anything like ours today then that is a definite bonus!!!!

That striped blazer is lovely. It really suits you.
Pity about the coat. It is a gorgeous colour. I think I've seen it in the catologues. I try not to look at ezibuy these days...its all abit too tempting.

Ahh Anne I see you finally got your striped blazer! Looks cute on you maybe the sleeves a touch too long but I suppose that can be easily fixed? I agree about the red coat, shame because it's a great color on you.

The sleeve length looks fine, Anne.

What a shame about the red coat! Keep looking, I'm sure the right one will come along eventually.

I like the second jacket well enough, and the striped one is great.

I decided to keep the striped blazer and wore it out tonight. And I LOVE the splaid (or tartan, as we call it in Aus) jacket. I wore it last night, to take my daughter to dancing and at home a lot.

Yay for having worn both already!! I am still trying to decide whether to copy you with the stripd blazer or not!!!

The striped blazer is REALLY nice Tam. Great quality. Stretchy but still structured. I can really see you in it.
