How was I so late on this one??? KEEP!!! FOr the love of heaven!!! </p> <p>You look so fantastic in this. </p> <p>And if you are worried about it being too "sweet" just DON'T. You can funk it up so many ways. I have found this to be an incredibly versatile colour. For instance, it works with citron....just saying' </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-648137 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 20:50:11 +0000 Jem 648137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great find! It looks amazing on you Rae, and was a sweet deal! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-648114 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 20:09:17 +0000 rae 648114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hehe, Shannon! I wouldn't dare! I am wracking my brain for a way to fit it into manspiration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-648087 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 19:30:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 648087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie has spoken! You better not cross her Rae and return it - you know how scary she can be (lol)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-647992 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 17:03:06 +0000 Heather 647992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it is a departure, but a style evolution. </p> <p>Gorgeous, Rae...you AND the trench. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-647925 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 15:04:34 +0000 christy 647925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I think this color is spectacular on you and it doesn't read as "sweet" to me. Especially as you'll style it. I agree that it doesn't work as an "indoor" coat; definitely an outer layer that comes off once you're indoors. Keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-647919 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 14:58:13 +0000 Angie 647919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope you are keeping it! KILLER. </p> <p>I would probably not keep this trench on indoors unless I was just browsing through shops and having a quick tea. Or I was really cold. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-647866 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 13:36:36 +0000 glam on the inside 647866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just joining the 'keep it!' chorus. Looks great on you and mixes so well with the other pieces in your pics. Seems to me that you have found an affordable, easy way to buy a style you love and do a teensy bit of experimenting too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-647845 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 12:30:05 +0000 Sarah A 647845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the fit especially when buttoned and tied! Can't comment as to the versatility and indoor wear... I think the color work nicely with your complexion, branching out a bit for $30, sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench/page/2#post-647826 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 10:53:29 +0000 Mona 647826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this trench. Colour and all. but I have a question too. What do you mean by "if it too sweet?" and how do you combat sweetness of coat with edgy boots? What are edgy boots? I think I need a 101 in style language. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647808 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 09:50:43 +0000 Scarlet 647808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep, silly girl! Also, I wouldn't plan to wear a trench indoors, but I do without hesitation when I am too cold. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647780 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 07:58:38 +0000 lyn67 647780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that colour, and think will be a great addition to your spring wardrobe.<br /> (nr. 7 is the sweet, but that's not yours, am I right?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647756 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 06:24:24 +0000 rae 647756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much, everyone! The tags are not off yet, but I have moved it from the hallway to my closet. I'm leaning toward keeping it; Joy, I especially love how it looks buttoned up! </p> <p>Thanks also for the advice on wearing indoors. And Christieanne, thanks a bunch for noting that jacket at the Gap. Unfortunately I can't do the nylon - that's why I got rid of my first yellow jacket. :T </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647751 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 06:13:29 +0000 christieanne 647751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that for work it should come off. Could leave on elsewhere if you want.<br /> Love the color even though I wouldn't think Rae if I saw in a shop. </p> <p>By the way - I did spot this yellow anorak jacket at the gap today and it was marked down in that store to 19.99. On website it is higher. I thought it looked better in person but it is a lightweight bright yellow sporty type jacket if you are still hunting.<br /> <a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?searchCID=25781&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=138518&#038;scid=138518022" rel="nofollow">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....=138518022</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647740 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 05:49:56 +0000 CocoLion 647740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very flattering Rae. It goes really well with your striped skirt, so a perfect work item. In a business setting, I would remove the coat indoors. But in a casual or smart casual setting, I think you can keep it on but maybe open it up so you don't look cold or like you're hiding something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647733 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 04:37:32 +0000 ManidipaM 647733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sweet? Apologies for using a bad word, princess, but I'd have said 'tart' --- like black currants or something! And also: 'royal'. Definitely not unworthy of a warrior, either.</p> <p>Seriously, not seeing the sweetness colourwise at all --- but it is a SWEET find. LOVE that length (with Diana, I want one too!). So great for showing off your legs *and* your boots!</p> <p>I'm a 'yes' vote, since you ask </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647732 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 04:36:22 +0000 Kate 647732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! Definitely a keeper, Rae. Looks beautiful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647728 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 04:16:03 +0000 Kari 647728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I think this color is fantastic on you. I don't have concerns about it at all, especially in combination with your UWP-esque footwear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647727 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 04:11:52 +0000 Deborah 647727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae the color doesn't read sweet to me. This looks great on you and the color is stunning against your skin tone and hair color. Fab purchase. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647709 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 03:17:27 +0000 Anonymous 647709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a bit of a departure for you, but I really like the color and style on you. It will work into your wardrobe just fine with a little Rae edginess. FWIW, it's not too "sweet" on its own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647707 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 03:16:38 +0000 kimana517 647707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, very cute! I say keep! It fits you nicely and the color looks great on you. I don't think it's "too sweet" for your style at all, because you can just use it to add a pop of something different to your usual look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647706 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 03:15:28 +0000 velvetychocolate 647706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely keep! It's gorgeous on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647702 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 03:00:03 +0000 deedee1221 647702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-30-orchid-trench#post-647678 Sun, 17 Jun 2012 01:57:38 +0000 jen 647678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous, the colour looks superb with your hair and complexion. </p>
