Nice shape and style for you. The H&amp;M coat definitely looks too big Bummer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-oversize-coats#post-1363231 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 08:26:54 +0000 Jeanie 1363231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the general shape of the charcoal coat on you. It's just too big. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-oversize-coats#post-1363156 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 04:20:03 +0000 catgirl 1363156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The grey is definitely too big.&nbsp; I think the pink works for you, although that kind of neckline always bothers me under the chin.&nbsp; If it's comfortable, it's such a pretty color for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-oversize-coats#post-1363133 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 04:02:16 +0000 Tanya 1363133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks bj1111!<br />Yes, I can layer comfortably under the pink coat - I tried over one of my chunkiest sweaters, the blush turtleneck in the photo, for that very reason. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-oversize-coats#post-1363132 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 04:01:49 +0000 jackiec 1363132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh boy I love the neckline of that pink coat! Cozy!</p> <p>I can't really tell about the grey one since you are swimming in it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-oversize-coats#post-1363127 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 03:57:50 +0000 bj1111 1363127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>these look like super choices. &nbsp;the pink is very you. &nbsp;will you be able to get your layers under the coat comfortably.</p> <p>disappointing about the charcoal coat--it had a good shape when closed. &nbsp;when open, it hangs oddly--this may be because of the too large size.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-oversize-coats#post-1363123 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 03:46:19 +0000 Tanya 1363123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I&nbsp; have a couple of nice wool coats, but they are all at least 5 years old and pretty classic/fitted.&nbsp; This season I am hoping to refresh my coat capsule with something more modern.&nbsp; I am yet to look for "the" new coat, something modern, on the looser side and very well made.&nbsp; But I have ordered two very inexpensive, fashion-forward coats to play and see how I like the new shapes.&nbsp; They are both thinner wool blends, lined and nicely made for the retailers they come from.<br />The first coat is a pink boucle cocoon from Express and this one is a definite keeper. I am only posting it here for comparison.&nbsp; It is neither fitted nor oversize, and it will go great with many items in my wardrobe.<br />The second, charcoal oversize from H&amp;M is the one I am trying to decide about.&nbsp; I made a mistake and sizes up (to 6), so it is huge!&nbsp; This size definitely needs to go back, but I am wondering what do you overall think of this style for me.&nbsp; If it gets thumbs up, should I reorder it in one or two sizes smaller?&nbsp; It is very inexpensive and not an investment of any kind, just a way to dip my toes int he oversize coat trend, since I need a looser coat to wear over my chunky knitwear. </p> <p>ETA: sadly, I have just noticed that the H&amp;M coat is completely sold out in every single size, sigh...&nbsp; Still interested in your input on this shape on me, but it looks that exchange is not going to happen.</p>
