You rock it to the moon and back. Enjoy and stay warm. (Don't tell me exactly how warm it is, because it has been killer cold here for the first time this winter and I am already desperate.)&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1599018 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 00:42:02 +0000 minimalist 1599018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, there's *one* thing, and one thing only, that could improve that coat:</p> <p>Put Sam in the pictures! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1599014 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 00:20:46 +0000 Elizabeth P 1599014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, Angie, my initial reaction to your comment was "Busted!" because when I wrote that, I was thinking two NEW black coats, not two black coats, total.&nbsp; But your comment has made me take stock, and I realized that apart from the past couple of years, I have never had a black winter coat!&nbsp; (Full disclosure: I do have a few for other seasons)</p> <p>When I figured my colours out threeish years ago, I got rid of a few coats that were all wrong.&nbsp; I have a few left over that aren't great on me, but there is still something about them that is "useful".&nbsp; A dark purple puffer... marshmallow style, total gear, and will likely get purged after this season as I don't think I've worn it in a couple of years.&nbsp; My brown sheepskin, and a charcoal grey car coat that is just so easy to throw on because it has a zipper up the front.&nbsp; This will also likely go now I have the navy J.Crew stadium cloth coat... very similar functions.&nbsp; I also have a deep red puffer that I still wear and like.&nbsp;&nbsp; My ski jacket is white with turquoise and purple.&nbsp; My two most recent coats (apart from this year) are both black... both from Costco.&nbsp; A pea coat (also probably to be replaced with the navy coat, we'll see if I wear it this winter), and a puffer that is "fine" but I've never loved it.&nbsp; So-so fit, so-so warmth, and the dreaded brown fur on the hood.&nbsp; What I've been looking for to supplement all this is a coat that is really WARM.</p> <p>My new cloth coats are navy, citron and black/white animal print.</p> <p>Thank you for "forcing" that investigation of my coats... it was good for me!&nbsp; And now I think you see (as do I) why I'm fine with my ultra warm coat being black.&nbsp; </p> <p>And I am going to make a note somewhere that I have three coats to purge if they don't get worn this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1598990 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 22:22:14 +0000 Angie 1598990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't know you only had two black coats. I thought you had MANY more. You're sorted with two! Keep and enjoy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1598987 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 22:16:20 +0000 Elizabeth P 1598987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Joyce, it is. And I did go with my normal Danier size. Go for it, it's a beautiful coat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1598968 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 21:00:36 +0000 Joyce B 1598968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a beautiful coat on you, it fits you very nicely.<br /> Is that the Arabella? Did you go with your usual Danier size or did you go up a size? I should not shop now though... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1598959 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 20:09:59 +0000 Elizabeth P 1598959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL UmmLila, that's me, all ahead of the style curve :)</p> <p>Angie, I get your point... two black coats might be a bit much.&nbsp; However... I do love black.&nbsp; And if I thought I could find a coloured one that I like, that fit, without a whole bunch of shipping costs, I might be tempted to wait. I just don't know if/when that will happen.&nbsp; I tried on a Lands End one recently (a friend got one) and it had the usual fit on the shoulders, huge everywhere else thing going on, which was quite disappointing as I've been eyeing their coats for some time.&nbsp; I will think about it a bit more.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat/page/2#post-1598954 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 19:33:11 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1598954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it.

I don't do it either. What, white boots? &nbsp; I don't think so. &nbsp;And....I know exactly what you mean about the sigh of relief putting on an all black outfit. &nbsp;I have on a black sweater and leggings today, and feel FAR more polished than I would with colour on , even at my desk. &nbsp;And common wisdom says that &nbsp;blondes/lighterhair coloured women (including grey) don't look good in black? &nbsp;I must be missing something because I totally disagree. Guess it's all in the skin tone. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat#post-1598875 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 15:43:05 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1598875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know you don't need our approval &nbsp; But for the record, you've got mine!

It's my comfort colour.&nbsp; I just wish I didn't feel so bottom heavy in it when I go head to toe, with my Q-tip hair.&nbsp; Bookending somehow does help an outfit look better, but I don't always do it... esp in winter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holy-moly-another-coat#post-1598859 Tue, 05 Jan 2016 15:07:18 +0000 Anonymous 1598859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HOLY CRAP. &nbsp;Nice coat. &nbsp;I'm sorry, but I love you in black.
