I look forward to seeing what you decide to get! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122241 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:25:37 +0000 Isabel 122241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, one more to answer queenie an Kristine : </p> <p>I have black hair but very fair skin. My wardrobe, in the winter, basically consists of black, grey, brown, camel, navy. I am very classicly boring. I love flat front trousers and wear jackets or fine gauge sweaters alot. I wear boots, but mostly wedges so that they don't appear too dressy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122239 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:22:32 +0000 Isabel 122239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone...I don't know how to post pics yet. I will get on photobucket and see if I can figure it out. I want a smart casual coat for everyday that will pass when I go into Boston. ( I live in a town of almost 4000 people, it is very agricultural and rural - but many people here travel to the city for work. )</p> <p>It sounds as if Melanie and I are very similar. I am almost 5'6, a size 2-4 and very small chested and pear shaped. I am also very long waisted. ( Rute, I weigh about 53Kgs and I am 1.6m tall so I don't worry about bulk too much)</p> <p>Kristine - the Laundry coat is actually grey ( wew-hoo - color for me )</p> <p>I think that I will send for both and by then I hope to be able to post a pic !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122235 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:16:50 +0000 rae 122235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The black one jumps at me but, like the other gals said, it would help to see them on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122216 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 14:47:56 +0000 rute 122216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like both, but the first one with pockets on the chest and on the hips seems less flattering (unless you are very thin and don't mind the extra volume). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122201 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 14:29:49 +0000 Kristine 122201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one a lot, but if you have three black coats you probably don't need another one. I like the simple cut of the second one and it would be beautiful in plum. But as several others said, it's hard to know without knowing your coloring, height, body shape, which colors are already in your wardrobe, clothes you'll be wearing underneath, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122193 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 14:00:18 +0000 Melanie 122193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Laundry coat and as a small busted, long waisted pear I would be drawn to it too. I think it would be better on a medium to tall frame though with all that embellishment. I love colour and I could see why you would like the seond coat in plum but I thought it had the potential to be a bit blah and middle aged. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122180 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:50:19 +0000 RoseandJoan 122180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you able to post pics of you wearing the coats Isabel? I have to say I love the first coat but would love to see how it looks on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122163 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 09:36:50 +0000 Louise 122163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first one is more casual wheras the second one could be worn smart and casual so i think it depends on what you will be wearing the coat for x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122092 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 02:57:52 +0000 Carole 122092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are both very nice, but like queenie, I wonder what would flatter your shape, and each coat is different, one is casual and the other seems dressier, at least to me....would love to more about you and how you would use it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122091 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 02:45:34 +0000 Queen Mum 122091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabel- have we seen pics of you and your style? It's hard to make a recommendation not seeing you.<br /> Also, what level of dressiness are you aiming for? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-which-coat#post-122067 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 01:17:09 +0000 Isabel 122067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to buy a coat for next winter.
