And you just made me order a new long puffer! I can’t belive I don’t own one. I may be the only person onYLF who lives in cold weather who doesn’t. It is a petite Edde Bauer. Hopefully it works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879507 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 20:16:11 +0000 Anonymous 1879507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Shelli Segal puffer from s couple of years ago. They do run a bit small, maybe narrow is a better word. I like mine better than an older Anne Klein. Both shed some feathers after a year. Shelli Segal is ok as a brand but not top notch. Wool sweaters are scratchy, for example. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879501 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 20:06:32 +0000 Angie 1879501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks. Now I can see the pics just fine.&nbsp;</p> <p>Loving the length and fit of the new NAVY puffer. The sleeves look very long though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879494 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 19:59:02 +0000 Chris987 1879494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jaileen</b>, I have no problem adding another parka as long as it's a good choice </p> <p><b>Ginger</b>, that white one looks AWESOME on you! I think this coat is intended for someone a bit taller than me....like you. </p> <p><b>torontogirl, Suz, tanstaafl, lisa p</b>, the fact that the two coats look so similar is very telling. </p> <p><b>Momo</b> I agree the quilting is nicer on #2. </p> <p><b>karen13</b> you are hitting on the fit, and it is in fact a little big. The reality of TJMaxx is that often there is only one size available in an item, so you have to be very good at ascertaining fit without having other sizes to compare to.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks <b>Rachy, </b>the blue IS really nice. </p> <p>I'm thinking I can do better, along lisa p's lines of looking for something completely different. Still mulling.....</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879467 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 19:27:00 +0000 rachylou 1879467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say Yes Blue is very different from black. This one is very flattering. Hangs a little more nicely than the black, IMO. The trim is nice with your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879448 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 17:49:12 +0000 karen13 1879448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is hard to see the color difference in the photos, but navy is so nice to have as an alternative to black. And with the winter you are having, you can certainly justify two.</p> <p>Are the sleeves too long? How is the armscye? Do they have a petite? I ask this because I am trying not to settle for misses sizes in things where arm length matters. Sometimes the misses size works, but usually not. But ta petite would probably be an inch or two shorter, so perhaps you want the extra length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879446 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 17:35:11 +0000 Chris987 1879446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great inputs everyone. I do need to give this some careful thought. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879442 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 17:18:16 +0000 Anonymous 1879442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't see much of a difference , to be honest. &nbsp;I'm also suffering from puffer fatigue &nbsp;though and they are all starting to look the same to me, lol. &nbsp;I'd be tempted to find something completely different if you still will be wearing your black one next year too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879428 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:57:18 +0000 tanstaafl 1879428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look very similar. I can tell that the color and quilting are different, but I would be considering this as a replacement instead of a different look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879425 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:53:32 +0000 Momo 1879425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like #2<br /> The quilting is prettier </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879423 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:47:00 +0000 Suz 1879423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look extremely similar in the photos, but black and navy are so hard to photograph! They both look good and if you need the length and navy is a HEWI (which I know it can be!) and this one has other features you want or need, why not go for it? You deserve a number of puffers. I felt a bit guilty buying my second one a few weeks ago, and yet I see that I do still reach for both! They fill slightly different functions. Both are extremely warm but one is "sportier" and one a (tiny bit) dressier; the one with the fur on the hood does better for me in extreme cold and snow; the grey one is a bit lighter weight (due to fabric) so is a good one to wear to the gym, etc. etc. In other words, I am now extremely glad to have two, even for roughly the same weather conditions, and neither is going to waste. In fact, in the past few weeks, I have worn both nearly every day for different outings.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879422 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:45:11 +0000 Helena 1879422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't tell the difference in the photos, but fwiw, I love my dark navy winter jacket - it really does feel (to me) a little fresher and different than the sea of black in winter. So I say, if the budget allows it, keep it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879419 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:42:07 +0000 jill58 1879419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chris, it still looks like two photos of the same coat to me. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879417 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 16:38:53 +0000 Ginger 1879417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the navy is definitely a better fit, and not black. I'm biased, though, because I have the white one and LOVE IT. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-navy-puffer-coat#post-1879400 Tue, 16 Jan 2018 15:45:27 +0000 Chris987 1879400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just uploaded the photos again.

I’ve been finding winter accessories, tops for winter and spring, and a few HEWis, almost everything at&nbsp; end of season clearance prices. I think I’m managing to avoid sales goggle decisions, but I have to be very tight with it since the sales goggles are just about forced onto your face at the door of a discount chain like this. </p> <p>I was thinking about looking for a warmer and nicer puffer coat next fall, and maybe a lightweight packable puffer jacket in a neutral color. To kill some time yesterday between appointments &nbsp;I stopped in at one of the larger TJMaxx stores near me. I tried on a bunch of packable puffer jackets from the clearance racks but none were the right fit and color. I had just about given up when I noticed one more rack toward the back of the store. I found a longer puffer that followed me home. I’m mulling over keeping it. </p> <p>1. My current Lands End black puffer coat that I’ve had for several years. Reasonably warm but pretty basic in style. </p> <p>2. The new possibility. It is NAVY. It's longer, warmer, and&nbsp;I think it's a more flattering shape. I&nbsp;posted finds for a few similar ones&nbsp;below although I could not find a photo of this exact coat anywhere.. The brand&nbsp;is Laundry by Shelli Segal.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've had good success with this brand.&nbsp; The online reviews say the similar ones run&nbsp;small, which I found also, so that may be typical for this brand. The reviews also say the hood is voluminous, which is true, but it’s removable. </p> <p><b><i>What do you think? Is #2 different enough to warrant keeping it?</i></b></p> <p>&nbsp;It's longer and a warmer, I think the fit is a little better and it’s NAVY not black which would be a nice change. </p> </p> <p>Thanks for your inputs! </p>
