From the pic, I would have thought it was too short, and not ordered it online. I really prefer to shop b&amp;m when I can, it weeds things out that may look nice online and vise versa.<br /> And update- I tried it over the other 2 long toppers and it works </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076537 Mon, 11 Nov 2019 13:17:17 +0000 Janet 2076537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good choice! You beat me to it — I was popping in to suggest trying the Rack, since I saw a number of good coats when I was there recently. And olive is a great choice for you! Bonus that it leaves some dollars available towards the boot and red coat fund! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076475 Sun, 10 Nov 2019 19:43:40 +0000 Anonymous 2076475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that olive puffer you chose! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076440 Sun, 10 Nov 2019 16:50:34 +0000 Angie 2076440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay!

Unfortunately it went from 60s-70s in October down to 30s now :(<br /> The wine wool coat I was wearing yesterday was really tight in the arms over my sweater and cardi- so glad I found this one! It should be warm enough for our coldest days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076418 Sun, 10 Nov 2019 15:14:15 +0000 nemosmom 2076418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, you can never go wrong with an olive coat!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076417 Sun, 10 Nov 2019 15:05:03 +0000 ChristelJ 2076417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your olive coat is almost exactly like a navy one I just bought out of necessity when it started snowing here in Colorado, and I’m getting a ton of use out of it. Yours should be very versatile. Hope you can get a red coat too. Sorry you are forced to shop for something you don’t enjoy. Ideally the new coats will protect you happily and cosily against the chill until you can get back to your favorite season! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076399 Sun, 10 Nov 2019 14:22:29 +0000 Anonymous 2076399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Update- I popped into Rack yesterday and picked up this one. Not burgundy, but the olive color looked nice on me and goes with everything I own.

The Uniqlo ones look a bit too lightweight, and the MK ones too that I've seen IRL. I like the Patagonia and Lady Day coats, but don't want to spend that much-since I want tall boots too!<br /> Right now I have one long coat, in wine colored wool. I love it and it goes with everything, but its tight at the arms with layers. My faux shearling is the warmest, but way too short for my maxi cardis. My other two coats are short puffers, for strictly above freezing weather- also not for long layers.<br /> I did mention last year I hate layers....sigh </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076118 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 23:09:41 +0000 lisaflex 2076118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lands End </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076083 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 19:48:59 +0000 LaPed 2076083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For an everyday winter coat, I love my Patagonia Down With It parka. </p> <p><a href="https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-down-with-it-parka/28441.html?dwvar_28441_color=NENA&#038;cgid=root&#038;isSearch=true#q=Down%2Bwith%2Bit&#038;lang=en_US&#038;start=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.patagonia.com/prod.....38;start=1</a></p> <p>This year's model has angled baffles and two gorgeous new colours, a deep plum and a dark teal green. A bit outside of your intended price range, but you should be able to find it for ~$200 if you're willing to wait for Black Friday promos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2076019 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 17:58:36 +0000 Anonymous 2076019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was looking at that LE coat too earlier! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2075997 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 17:11:32 +0000 Angie 2075997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> Something earthy perhaps:&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.landsend.com/products/womens-winter-long-down-coat-with-faux-fur-hood/id_327570?attributes=8063,43307,43326,43398,44256,44967">https://www.landsend.com/produ.....0?attribut</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2075977 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 15:14:17 +0000 Anonymous 2075977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last year I got a long Michael Kors puffer in deep navy with gold hardware that has been a favorite. My puffer has a two-way zipper and no belt so they are out there.

In my find it looks more purple, but IRL it has more red (like a port or burgundy color). It's really warm. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>It is double breasted, and has a wider collar than you are likely after, but it's a sleek/slim fit.

I may order that one from Macys with the scarf, but I'll look at the other options too. I had also debated Angies red one, but prefer single breasted and narrower or no collar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2075923 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 13:04:32 +0000 RobinF 2075923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are some casual ones at Uniqlo in burgundy-ish colors. I got one of the lightweight down coats and it is really long. I debated hemming it but since I also like long cardigans I am leaving it long. It goes well past my knees but I am short. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2075920 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 12:58:56 +0000 Bijou 2075920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried Zara? I got a great basic one button black coat from Zara last year and I constantly get complimented on it.</p> <p>My favourite cold weather coat is a Lady Day coat from JCrew. This at full price would be above the price range you set. I was fortunate to get mine on winter stock clearance - one of the bonuses of living in the Southern Hemisphere - when your end of season stock is on deep discount, our weather is just changing. My Lady Day coat is amazing quality and warm and a classic design, I know I will have this coat for years. JCrew have 30% off at the moment, which makes it a bit closer to the mark. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2075915 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 12:40:43 +0000 Chris987 2075915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Found a few possibilities at Macys.com. They don't seem to have a huge selection in burgundy but in grey/black, yes, LOTS of possibilities. From what I've seen they have a lot of coats in your price range. Returnable in store if there is one near you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coat-hunt-take-2#post-2075911 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 12:28:41 +0000 Anonymous 2075911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I abandoned my coat hunt last year- after trying on many coats with the Kenny hood phenomenon, but I'm trying again.<br /> Who has loooong, as in knee length or maxi, warm coats this year? Most of what's labeled as long are not even knee length on the models, and I need it to layer over long cardis. </p> <p>Hoping for:<br /> Solid burgundy but would do matte black/charcoal if needed<br /> No silver hardware<br /> No real fur<br /> No strong horizontal lines-puffs in rows, wide collar, cocoon or otherwise boxy shape.<br /> &lt;$200ish<br /> Medium or maybe large- to fit layers<br /> Dressy enough for daily wear-will go over workwear<br /> Ideally returnable IRL not mail back if it doesn't work</p> <p>Am I hunting a unicorn?<br /> Eta- coat could be a puffer, wool (if not itchy), maybe a squall (if they look dressy enough), or faux shearling (with no wide collar). Also ETA- prefer no belt. </p>
