I love the details; the waist cinching belt and the funnel style neck. </p> <p><a href="http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/womens/coats/wool/PRD~396033/Sonoma+life+++style+FunnelNeck+Wool+Coat.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStor.....l+Coat.jsp</a></p> <p> They are having a 50% sale right now on basically all of their coats! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32678 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:39:33 +0000 Debbie 32678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you have to pay full price for the coat? I am wondering if this brand ever goes on sale?</p> <p>Anyone know? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32576 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 15:48:58 +0000 Inge 32576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're welcome Debbie. It sounds like the sleeves might work as is then for you</p> <p>Yes, I did order directly from their website. Nordstrom and a few other stores have a some of their coats online too, but I didn't see the Yan-T there (or at least not in purple).</p> <p>I'm not very familiar with US sizing, but if you look at their size chart I was actually in between a small and a medium, but I decided to go with the large because I really want to be able to wear thicker sweaters underneath.</p> <p>I hope this helps a bit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32550 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 12:32:04 +0000 Debbie 32550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge</p> <p>Thanks for measuring the sleeves. They may work. My Jcrew coat sleeve length is 25" and it is ok.</p> <p>Yours looks great. Did you order from their website? I am unfamilar with this brand but LOVE the coats they have on it.</p> <p>If I normally wear an 8 or medium would I go to a large or 10 in this brand?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32543 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 11:46:41 +0000 Inge 32543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Edit: here is the link to my coat post Debbie:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-soia-038-kyo-winter-coat-what-do-you-think?replies=1#post-32542" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....post-32542</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32539 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 11:17:58 +0000 Inge 32539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Debbie, I absolutely love the collar and colour. S&#38;K really does make beautiful coats!</p> <p>I just measured the sleeves for you - from the upper part of the shoulder seam all the way down, I hope that's the correct way to do this? - and they are about 25.2 inches. Not long enough for me, but as you will see on the thread I'm about to post, they can be let out.</p> <p>I'm a straight hourglass and I think it works for me (let's hope I don't have to change my mind after showing the pictures on the forum;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32486 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 00:01:04 +0000 Debbie 32486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge that is a beautiful coat! Would you mind measuring the sleeve length for me?</p> <p>I am 5'6.5 " tall. </p> <p>Is that style pretty good on about anyone? I mean would the shape work for hourglass?</p> <p>That coat is stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32478 Tue, 28 Oct 2008 23:15:30 +0000 Inge 32478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Debbie</p> <p>How was your trip? Welcome back!-)</p> <p>How tall are you again? I just bought the Soïa&#38;Kyo Yan-T coat and it looks great (I will post photos this week). For me (I'm 5'8) it's a tad too short to cover my skirts and dresses completely, but if you are a bit shorter, it might work. Oh, and I will definitely have to have the sleeves let out, they really are on the short side.</p> <p>There are a number of beautiful coats on their site, including tweeds, false plain etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-wool-winter-coat-suggestions-appreciated#post-32459 Tue, 28 Oct 2008 21:17:39 +0000 Debbie 32459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last year in my pre-YLF days I bought a black (show-everything- like-cat-and-dog-hair) Jcrew wool with thinsulate pea coat. It hits at the hip.</p> <p>Now I need a warm (non- black!) long coat to wear with dresses. It gets cold cold cold here. I think I would like gray, tweed, herringbone, white or teal. I am hourglass shape.</p> <p>JCrew usually has long enough sleeves for me on their coats but I get overwhelmed when I sort through their coats since I have to do it online only.</p> <p>Can anyone recommend a coat for me to try?</p> <p>I would also be open to trying a winter white coat and changing the buttons to black since I love that look so much! </p>
