And it'll be a nice change from NYC's sea of black coats at this time of year. Be sure to bring some thermal underwear if you have any. When NYC gets cold, the wind really whips around! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540827 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 20:30:10 +0000 Mander 540827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am way late too, but my pick was the same as Angie's! Yay! Does that mean I'm learning?!? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540772 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:31:22 +0000 MsMary 540772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Meredith, you are my kind of woman!

I'm not any help at all. :(<br /> P.S. I ordered my LLBean boatneck striped sweaters this am. I'm getting the black/cream, cream/navy and the gray/cream. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540663 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 17:31:30 +0000 rae 540663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm SO OH SO late to this, but without reading through... you may have already decided... I vote for #1 hands down. The blonde fur on the hoods of the others kind of visually become an extension of your hair, and take its shape to weird places. The color of the red is also just so flattering on you, and I think the simple shape will suit it to any color mixing you plan to do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540542 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 15:19:33 +0000 Transcona Shannon 540542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Without reading any of the other responses (mostly 'cause I''m pressed for time) I vote for the red in the smaller size - it looks like it fits really well and I love the bright, happy colour. It looks fab on you MaryK! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540486 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 14:03:05 +0000 HelenInCanada 540486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #4 best! The colour is pure fab, and the fit is perfect. Love the fur trim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540483 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 13:54:54 +0000 modgrl 540483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zap, I am going to try but I have family commitments that are going to make it difficult. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540482 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 13:54:29 +0000 Jjsloane 540482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am way too late, but would have said the cobalt (no belt) first and the red second. Can't wait to see you and Zap together! Enjoy your trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540481 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 13:50:58 +0000 Anonymous 540481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Plus, having you in a black puffer would be a fashion sacrilege. No way! Rita, would you be able to join us? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540476 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 13:40:42 +0000 modgrl 540476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first one on you. I like that it is not fussy. It fits you perfectly. Also when you are in a hurry you just zip it up and go without worrying about zipper, snaps and a belt. You will stand out in the best possible way in NYC. Everyone is wearing black puffed thi time of year. The color makes its own statement. Also I think something simple is going to have more staying power If this is your puffer for the next 20 years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540421 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 07:29:42 +0000 ManidipaM 540421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to explain why I thought the red was best on you, but since Angie's spoken and you have chosen, I no longer need to! </p> <p>Just wanted to chime in to say that your one initial hesitation --- the zipper --- might be a blessing in disguise, because I find the zippered ones stay warmer (you button up in haste, leave the zipper off, and cold air gets through...) and it's fabulous to find a two-way zipper to boot. Hope your very versatile red will see you through the next 20 years, MaryK! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540386 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 05:14:56 +0000 AJ 540386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL, Zapotee!!

And she says "it looks fantastic!" *blushing*</p> <p>Since that one fits the best, as far as I'm concerned that seals the deal. The others are all packed back up in their box and are ready to be returned to Sears!</p> <p>Thanks for all your help and encouragement, ladies! This was a fun way to spend the evening! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat/page/2#post-540368 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 05:03:18 +0000 Anonymous 540368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hahaha..

I just have to get through the NYC week and then the occasional "trip to the snow," as we say here in Lost Angeles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540359 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:58:47 +0000 AJ 540359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, if it HAS to be one of these three then I'm voting for the red one for the best fit. Plus, the red is spunky like you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540358 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:57:04 +0000 Anonymous 540358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black puffers are much easier to deal with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540355 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:54:54 +0000 Marley 540355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know absolutely NOTHING about puffers, so I have no idea how they are supposed to fit - so . . . My opinion is based on NO KNOWLEDGE whatsoever. To me, the sapphire is just beautiful on you - rich and a great shade of blue for you. But, I think the red in #1 fits you better - however, the red is not near as good of a color for you as the sapphire. Geez, I sure hope Angie pipes up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540349 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:51:12 +0000 MsMary 540349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Makrame, that one is GORGEOUS! Unfortunately, one of the first things I learned here at YLF is that I absolutely need petite sizes in outerwear! And I'm leaving at the crack of dawn Saturday morning so no more time to shop -- one of these is going to be it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540343 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:48:07 +0000 Makrame 540343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with AJ - I find black or dark grey puffers most versatile. Here is another one I like, just in case if you need more confusing choices <a href="http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/calvin-klein-coat-long-down-walker-with-hood?ID=480425&#038;CategoryID=269#fn=COAT_STYLE%3DPuffer%26sp%3D1%26spc%3D22%26ruleId%3D19%26slotId%3D2" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/shop/pro.....slotId%3D2</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540340 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:47:22 +0000 MsMary 540340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie has spoken, but I'm not gonna spoil it just yet. ;)</p> <p>BTW is it just me or do I look super scary when I come home from the gym on non-flatiron hair days? LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540331 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:44:29 +0000 DonnaF 540331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On my computer, the sapphire color looks the best on you and flatters your hair color the most. The red on my screen is a bit too vibrant and orange and doesn't have as rich a feeling as the blue. Also, I feel like red is available every year, but the blues not so much. The cut of the blue jackets isn't a *10*, but I think they are better without the belt. However, without a thick underlayer, a belt probably makes them warmer. </p> <p>Have a great time in NY! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-pick-my-puffer-coat#post-540326 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 04:42:46 +0000 AJ 540326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe that's why Angie's puffer is black...most slimming color. Is Angie's black one similar in style to the red one? </p>
