Such a great colour. You can definitely pull of the DB look - maybe because you are so petite? I do love the shape of the 2nd ASOS one, but I think you are on the right track with going for a coloured coat instead of black to brighten up a winter's day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233907 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 00:59:27 +0000 Beth 233907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the blue coat, Dawn. It's a definite keeper and looks fab on you:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233896 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 00:47:36 +0000 Lisa 233896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blue coat is gorgeous for both color and fit on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233780 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 21:56:38 +0000 Anchi 233780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is one *fantastic* coat! You are very lucky. If I could find a coat that looks even halfway good on me as this one does on you, I'd be squealing! ^_^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233728 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 18:55:56 +0000 tarzy 233728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That blue is gorgeous! I don't see any problem with the double-breasted style on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233712 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 18:06:54 +0000 Maya 233712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't pass up that blue coat. It is perfection on you.</p> <p>I saw the corseted coat too and thought it was interesting, but perhaps a bit too heavily detailed. I like the more subtle detailing on the blue military coat, and the color/fit is so pretty.</p> <p>You've made me want to buy a new coat! Thanks a lot... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233709 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:46:40 +0000 Louise 233709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooo I love the blue coat on you in the picture. I wonder if the ASOS corset coat may date quickly? x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233700 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:12:53 +0000 Scarlet 233700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That coat looks seriously adorable on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233651 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 15:18:29 +0000 Dawn 233651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can layer under it. I was wearing a thick long sleeve tshirt, camisole, cardigan and thick leather belt while I was trying it on but I think I will go back next week and try it on with a thicker knit top on. I don't tend to layer jackets under my coats so I'm not too worried about that but I might bring my suit jacket along anyway to check. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233649 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 15:13:33 +0000 Angie 233649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER blue coat, Dawn. Can you layer effectively underneath it and have the sleeve length adjusted? </p> <p>I vote the photographed coat as opposed to the others posted for sure! The DB detailing does not bother me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-everyone-else-looking-for-a-new-winter-coat#post-233647 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 15:07:26 +0000 Dawn 233647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey everyone, </p> <p>I'm looking for a new winter coat as my old winter coat which has lasted two winters is looking quite worn out and needs repairs which my tailor priced for me to be around €60. So as I have never been quite happy with this coat, I think that it may be time to bite the bullet and buy a 'big ticket' item this winter. I'm owed overtime pay for this month so I should be able to afford it in the beginning of November.</p> <p>I'm definitely looking for a colourful coat in either blue, green or red but I wouldn't say no to a navy or patterned neutral coat. I took a look this morning around the shops and only one coat really stood out to me: <a href="http://www.oasis-stores.com/Military-Pleat-Back-Coat/Coats-&#038;-Jackets/oasis/fcp-product/4500024715" rel="nofollow">http://www.oasis-stores.com/Mi.....4500024715</a> I tried on the blue version of it- see photo below in a size XS.</p> <p>Other than that, two other coats have stood out for me: <a href="http://www.asos.com/Kookai/Kookai-Wool-Mix-Dogtooth-Double-Breasted-Coat/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1265723&#038;cid=2641&#038;sh=0&#038;pge=0&#038;pgesize=200&#038;sort=1&#038;clr=Black/White" rel="nofollow">http://www.asos.com/Kookai/Koo.....lack/White</a></p> <p>and this if it were available in another colour: <a href="http://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Wool-Corset-Coat/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1216905&#038;cid=2623&#038;sh=0&#038;pge=0&#038;pgesize=20&#038;sort=-1&#038;clr=Black" rel="nofollow">http://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-.....;clr=Black</a></p> <p>I guess the big question is whether I can wear double-breasted coats or should I stick to single-breasted coats. Apart from that, I know that I want a knee-length wool coat with a waist tie. </p>
