The leather jacket looks like it will be great for both casual and smart occasions. It looks really good on you. I'm excited to see what you add! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-help#post-249920 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 20:52:15 +0000 lynn 249920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The leather jacket is cute. I agree with the others on a puffer and a knee length wool coat being a good investment for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-help#post-249897 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 20:14:09 +0000 inkstainedwriter 249897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the advice! I had a horrific handmedown in college that was a longer TEAL puffy and I'm a little scared of buying anything longer than my hips. But I'll go to the mall and try a few on. I've been wrong before! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-help#post-249872 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 19:17:20 +0000 chewyspaghetti 249872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll make it a third- MOTION CARRIED! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-help#post-249862 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 18:58:24 +0000 Louise 249862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Kari on the knee length puffer x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-help#post-249855 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 18:52:58 +0000 Kari 249855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, I really love your leather jacket. It doesn't look poor quality to me from the pictures, and seems to fit you quite well. (The fold will probably relax as you wear it.)</p> <p>Living in DC, I would guess that a pretty, thick, mid-thigh or knee length wool coat and a puffer coat would be great investments for winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-help#post-249837 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 18:37:14 +0000 inkstainedwriter 249837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie suggested I get coat help, so here I am! Once I pulled my coats out, I think I see the problem. Everything is technically snow gear. There's a reason for that: my husband! </p> <p>He's from Buffalo and I'm from the south and didn't have coats growing up. He always says this kind of coats are what people wear, so I believed him! It works in his hometown, but here, I feel out of place. </p> <p>I'm not a dressy dresser, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for? A puffer? We live in DC now, so it gets colder and windy.</p> <p>My really warm coat: (I couldn't get the pic loader to work!)<br /> <a href="http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff326/inkstainedwriter/DSC_0109.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i536.photobucket.com/al.....C_0109.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff326/inkstainedwriter/DSC_0106.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i536.photobucket.com/al.....C_0106.jpg</a></p> <p>My inbetween coat:<br /> <a href="http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff326/inkstainedwriter/DSC_0118.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i536.photobucket.com/al.....C_0118.jpg</a><br /> (I like wearing this one because it's soft and lightweight) </p> <p>I think both of these aren't very flattering. </p> <p>I just bought this one and I'm not sure what I think. It's a leather coat that I found at Kohls. I love the details and the collar, but I've never worn leather before. It's not super great quality and has an odd drape (I think it was packed funny at the store).</p> <p><a href="http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff326/inkstainedwriter/DSC_0087.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i536.photobucket.com/al.....C_0087.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff326/inkstainedwriter/DSC_0099.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i536.photobucket.com/al.....C_0099.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i536.photobucket.com/albums/ff326/inkstainedwriter/DSC_0016.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i536.photobucket.com/al.....C_0016.jpg</a></p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated! </p>
