The lapels and the hem at the bottom make it for me. And Angie says it's the best.</p> <p>But *I hear you about not wanting black*. , about black not being the best colour but still ok, and about black being boring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-coat-considerations#post-1693982 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 14:35:06 +0000 Suz 1693982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck, Tanya!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-coat-considerations#post-1693978 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 14:32:40 +0000 Tanya 1693978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, Angie has spoken and the decision is easy :)&nbsp; Thank you very much for chiming in, Angie, I love when your instructions are a little bossy.&nbsp; The coat is just about to be ordered.</p> <p>Viva, I hope you are correct and the the black is indeed "soft".</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-coat-considerations#post-1693970 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 14:17:22 +0000 viva 1693970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! Angie speaks again. I would love to see the Trina on you, Tanya. The front is SPECTACULAR. And the fit is made for your physique. And, it looks like a very soft black, if that helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-coat-considerations#post-1693968 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 14:15:03 +0000 Angie 1693968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GET THE TRINA COAT. Best coat at the NAS. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-coat-considerations#post-1693954 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 14:03:08 +0000 Tanya 1693954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Forgot to say that I would also really appreciate size recommendations for the Guess (options XS=0 or S=2-4) and Ted Baker (options 1=0-2, 2=4-6) coats for someone who is a typical size 2 and does not have dainty shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-coat-considerations#post-1693866 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 11:41:27 +0000 Tanya 1693866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The main item I hope to find at NAS this year is a great wool coat.&nbsp; I am hoping for something of high quality/higher end, tailored, at least medium weight and the possible colors are: navy (to replace my double-breasted navy coat that looks worn), light-to-mid grey, cream, dark jewel tones (burgundy, eggplant, teal). I am trying to avoid black though I can certainly pull it off - it is not my best color but I can wear it, I just find black coats boring.&nbsp; Plus I already have a lighter-weight black cocoon coat with faux-leather sleeves from J Crew factory.<br />So far, I am considering three options, and each one has it's pros and cons.&nbsp; Of course, I can not access quality and weight online and hope Angie chimes in, but nothing ticks all the right boxes.&nbsp; My quality guesses are based on typical ones for the said brand.&nbsp;&nbsp; My local Nordie's does not have any of these,so would appreciate your thoughts.&nbsp; Having found no booties, the coat will be my&nbsp; main purchase and needs to be decided on first as it will determine how much budget there is left for other&nbsp; items.</p> <p>1. TT officer coat, which is sadly black.&nbsp; The cut is perfect for me, and I would guess the quality very good.&nbsp; Don't know the weight/warmth.&nbsp; Definitely my favorite coat of the sale, minus the black part.&nbsp; I keep thinking about relaxing the non-black request.<br />2. Navy Guess double breasted coat. Quite similar to the old one I would be replacing, love both the cut and color.&nbsp; I don't like the gold/brass buttons, and would probably replace them with something in the cool/silver family.&nbsp; I am unsure about the quality and the weight is probably medium at best as it says it is wool-blend.<br />3. Burgundy wrap Ted Baker. Love the color, and the quality is probably impeccable. The cut is good for me and I like it, but not as much as the two above.&nbsp; Not sure about the warmth, it looks a little thin, though the description says it is made of wool blend that is 75% wool.</p>
