This is actually a thread from last winter, I think, started after I spied a woman striding through the mall in an amazing yellow puffer. </p> <p>I bought no fewer than four puffers last winter, so I’m not exactly wanting for outerwear! That said, the temptation will be hard to resist if the right yellow one comes along! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat/page/2#post-2286957 Thu, 20 Oct 2022 12:59:18 +0000 RobinF 2286957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That coat looks very Uniqlo but I checked and alas, no bright yellow.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat/page/2#post-2286939 Thu, 20 Oct 2022 10:34:02 +0000 Anonymous 2286939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You need a bright sunny coat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat/page/2#post-2286921 Thu, 20 Oct 2022 04:11:42 +0000 Greenjeans 2286921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!

I took this post to be in the same vein as my own recent whiney rant about a pair of purple pants, where the point isn’t a carefully laid out strategy of how to work it into a considered wardrobe, but simply “COOL! Look at this neato thing (that isn’t for my wardrobe rn, darn it)”. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2241042 Tue, 30 Nov 2021 05:15:09 +0000 CarolS 2241042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Im a bit envious, Thankfull2! I do love a basic black puffer for some situations, but other times the day or mood just cries out for colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2241032 Tue, 30 Nov 2021 02:29:10 +0000 CarolS 2241032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL Approprio -- You mean business!!! <b>IF&nbsp;</b>I found such a coat and if I liked it IRL as much as in theory, and if it fit my budget, <b></b>I have to say I wouldn't worry a lot about making it work for the whole winter. <b>I'd buy for love and then wing it. :-)</b></p> <p>I need a variety of layering pieces for any coat -- including my heaviest one. That includes tnecks, heavier pullovers, cardigans and even other light puffers to layer underneath. In "the old days" I got extra wear out of lightweight jackets by layering blazers underneath, although I haven't really worn blazers in a few years.</p> <p>In any case, first I would have to find the yellow coat. :-)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2241006 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 22:30:36 +0000 approprio 2241006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, In a very “eat your greens” kind of a way, I say if you want this coat, you need a strategy for wearing it through the winter.</p> <p>What layering pieces do you need to make it work?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2241002 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 21:38:25 +0000 Joyce 2241002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have this coat, not this yellow but more of a safron. It is the same style with side entry pockets and is great for the rain or cool temps. Mine is from Everlane and works great with a hoodie and&nbsp; toque. Best of all, it isn't black! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2240984 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 17:58:28 +0000 CarolS 2240984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You said it, Jules. It is a taunt. It is much more fun to dress for the milder 'cold' weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2240965 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 15:58:51 +0000 Jules 2240965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The diamond quilting definitely does add to the classic, even ‘dressy’ vibe of the inspo pic. The French Connection one is cool too, in a more avant garde way perhaps?<br /> I totally hear you on the fact this is not an actual Canadian winter coat, even more so in Winnipeg I’m sure. And the fact that ‘transitional’ weight coats, whether puffers, wool or leather, have limited use in our climates. So many inspirational, styled photos of outwear and footwear are really for much milder climates. It’s frustrating! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2240964 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 15:54:34 +0000 CarolS 2240964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh oh! That could spell trouble RoseandJoan! Thanks for the tip!</p> <p>Angie - it sure would be a fun one to have!

My smartest move would be to find a slightly warmer version of it, as our weather is often so much colder than a coat like this can handle. But the seed is planted, and we will see. My husband has a huge yellow parka that he wears on,y for shovelling snow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2240923 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 10:12:43 +0000 lyn67 2240923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy first, please!:-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coveting-this-coat#post-2240908 Mon, 29 Nov 2021 05:56:11 +0000 Bijou 2240908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carol, because you live in a cool climate, a coat like this makes perfect sense.

I've seen similar collarless puffers at Uniqlo (they had different colours, available in both shorter &amp; longer lengths). It's not the same diamond quilted pattern though, if I recall correctly. </p> <p>I have to sit on my hands when it comes to these toppers though because, although I would need plenty back in the UK, I'm already sorted for the 'winter' here with a turquoise rain poncho, chocolate leather jacket, packable puffer &amp; a teal wool coat. I even have a heavy rust brown wrap coat sitting in a suitcase, ready for when I next head home - I know I have a problem, lol! </p>
