I wear my trenches all the time (granted, it does rain often in Belgium:-) definitely also when it's dry and sunny, yet chilly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032273 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 20:12:24 +0000 kellygirl 1032273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! I’m verra verra relieved that I don’t have to replace. My outerwear collection is pretty minimal--probably the only thing minimal in my closet!</p> <p>@Rae: Ooh, that’s a great idea. I’m going to try that for sure!</p> <p>@Glory, Ceit, Mo: Thanks!</p> <p>@Denise, Inge and Ingunn: I’m laughing, Denise! I usually wear the red trench with skinnies because the only time I wear this is when it is actually raining! I’ve never worn it with a dress or skirt because I never wear those things when it’s raining. (Notice a theme here?) I was *just* thinking that I could zip out the liner and have a lighter weight trench to wear more often.&nbsp; I forgot that it had a zip out liner--it’s so well made that the zipper is hidden! What a dork, I am! As long as you are sure it’s not weird to wear a rain coat when it’s not raining, I will give it a go! Thanks!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032261 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:56:47 +0000 Ingunn 1032261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Denise said;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032253 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:49:52 +0000 Inge 1032253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think all three still look great, Kelly. And yes please, do wear the second coat more often!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032228 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:25:20 +0000 Mo 1032228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look fine to me. &nbsp;If you are still happy with them I don't see a reason to replace any of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032209 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:03:12 +0000 CocoLion 1032209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Idea: &nbsp;can you wear the red coat with skirts or dresses. &nbsp;Or, wear with a skinny skinny leg pant and more delicate footwear. &nbsp;The coat has a voluminous aspect which needs to be balanced with slimmer, more delicate profile pieces underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032207 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:01:41 +0000 CocoLion 1032207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the second, red one! &nbsp;I want you to wear it more often. &nbsp;Now that's an ORDER. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032204 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:59:00 +0000 Anonymous 1032204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they all are keepers too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032199 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:52:39 +0000 Glory 1032199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think all of them look great.

I second the belt in back suggestion. You can also flip the belt over and buckle from the back if you know you'll be opening and closing a lot. You still get a good waist cinch and don't have to worry about a knot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032185 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:39:45 +0000 kellygirl 1032185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Suz. I will try to tie the belt in the back. I forgot about that trick!&nbsp; </p> <p>@Pil: Thanks! Gosh, it's a relief. I was dreading the K/R trench posts and I hadn't even ordered yet!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032184 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:38:38 +0000 pil 1032184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No need to replace as far as I can see! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032179 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:34:08 +0000 Suz 1032179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look terrific, to me, Kelly! &nbsp;</p> <p>For the second one, can you tie the belt in the back if you want to wear it open? I do that sometimes with one of my trenches.&nbsp;</p> <p>I even like the stadium coat. You look wonderful in the black and the red.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-replace-outerwear#post-1032176 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:30:40 +0000 kellygirl 1032176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to dig deep into the closet to find my outerwear. I was considering replacing my black trench but after looking at a bunch on line, I'm thinking this one is basic enough to last for at least another year. (The replacement I was considering is shown in picture 4.) What do you think?&nbsp;</p> <p>The red "raincoat"&nbsp;is an Angie pick from NAS a couple of years ago--still going strong. Wish I could figure out a way to wear it open. Second picture shows the belt stuffed in the pockets (not very pretty.) I really only wear this when it rains--so not very often.&nbsp;</p> <p>The last black one is LE and used mostly for out door sporting events. Not &nbsp;pretty but functional and machine washable.&nbsp;</p> <p>Do any of them scream "replace me" to you?&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
