I look forward to seeing it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-809245 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 04:53:25 +0000 Nicole D 809245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am sure you will be very happy with that coat! It is lovely. I actually liked number 2 also, and it has alpaca - so soft and warm! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-809232 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 04:07:36 +0000 Thistle 809232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered 3. I kept going back to it and going back to it. Nordstrom's has a generous return policy, so if it doesn't work, I know they will take it back.</p> <p>If it doesn't work, I will try the 6.pm coat. Just nervous to order from them as I may or may not need a different size, and return shipping get pricey. Nordstrom and zappos have spoiled me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-809199 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 03:27:57 +0000 Anonymous 809199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first coat you linked to is gorgeous but would be an investment piece. The second one would be light weight, but, unless you have narrow shoulders, that extra wide collar could be difficult. Alpaca is really warm and soft but this may not be warm enough. The third one doesn't look too young. I'd wear that coat if it were long enough to come to my knees and I'm a lot older than you are. I like the blue Nicole Miller coat that Zap linked to also, although it looks too big for the model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-809193 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 02:58:08 +0000 velvetychocolate 809193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the look of the coat in that last link you provided...and no, I don't think it's too "young looking" or anything of the kind. As Henley suggested, it's simple and feminine - and (imo) probably has a high longevity factor. </p> <p>Meanwhile, I also think that two coats in the links that Zapotee provided are quite similar, and you might want to investigate those (I think they look fab too!). That said, as far as I know, if you order from 6pm, you have around 30 days to return if need be (caution here though - their 30-day return policy starts from the date of the order, not the date you received the parcel...so yeah, you'd have to rush it back on over to UPS or what have you ASAP if the size/shape/style didn't work out). </p> <p>I really like the style and shape of that last coat you mentioned in your post AND the ones that Zapotee found on 6pm. I don't think you could go wrong with this shape/style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-809104 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 00:29:28 +0000 rachylou 809104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The last is sharp! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-809102 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 00:26:37 +0000 Anonymous 809102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the first one! But it looks like it may be high maintenance. I also like the last one and it reminds me of what I currently wear. It's simple and feminine, but I don't think it's too young looking at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-808886 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:47:13 +0000 Anonymous 808886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Check this one:<br /> <a href="http://www.6pm.com/nicole-miller-single-breasted-skirted-coat-cobalt?zfcTest=mat%3A1" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com/nicole-mill.....st=mat%3A1</a></p> <p>I almost got sized out of it, I bought a size 2. I have never been a size 2, ok, maybe back in utero. That's how big these run. Just an FYI. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-808885 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:45:22 +0000 Anonymous 808885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>double post </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-808883 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:44:47 +0000 Anonymous 808883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the last one. As a matter of fact, I'm wearing something very similar today.</p> <p><a href="http://www.6pm.com/nicole-miller-side-tab-wool-coat-camel?zfcTest=mat%3A1" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com/nicole-mill.....st=mat%3A1</a></p> <p>The coat looks horrific on that zappos picture but it fits really nice. It runs at least two sizes larger. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat---looking-for-ideas#post-808878 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:38:51 +0000 Thistle 808878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, after returning my coat and the store being unable to have any for me to try on, I decided to check Nordstrom's. At least I can return for free if they don't work.</p> <p>Really liked this one, but hubbs would have me checked into an asylum for spending this much on a coat. On the plus side, I bet it would be really warm!<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/blue-duck-genuine-spanish-merino-shearling-coat/3366014?origin=category&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=6794" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/bl.....tback=6794</a></p> <p>Found this one, not sure if it would be flattering.
