I also like the belted trench coat. </p> <p>But a cream or white (not khaki) topper is ideal for Spring and Summer. The gals here know I think its indispensible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-picking-a-spring-jacket#post-51139 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:35:35 +0000 Lee Hovey 51139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So another for rain jacket:</p> <p>This one, if I remember correctly the color is a little darker in person, which is good because it appears a tad too bright for my liking here.<br /> <a href="http://www.target.com/Merona-Double-Breasted-Jacket-Green/dp/B001I9X9BE/qid=1235157641/ref=br_1_10/192-0053205-3675830?ie=UTF8&#038;node=1239493011&#038;frombrowse=1&#038;rh=&#038;page=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Merona-D.....038;page=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-picking-a-spring-jacket#post-51137 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:18:38 +0000 Lee Hovey 51137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like the consensus is the first one, so what about the first one in the blue color. Is that blue neutrally enough do you think? (making up words, I know)<br /> <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5448&#038;pid=648706&#038;scid=648706002" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/.....=648706002</a></p> <p>I hear you load and clear about the rain coat, so I am glad I asked. I actually really want a nice spring green rain coat, I really don't know why. So I will keep looking.</p> <p>I haven't looked at H&#38;M yet because there is no H&#38;M within an hour of me, but when I go visit my sisters in NH I usually hit the H&#38;M on the way. Just not sure when that will be next.</p> <p>I did try EMS and one other outdoor store but I found all their coats are very "gear"... not my style at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-picking-a-spring-jacket#post-51131 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 18:53:10 +0000 Louise 51131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the second 1 though agree it is perhaps more jackety than coaty. </p> <p>Also agree with the above comments about the rain coat. Have you tried outdoor/ leisure shops we have Millets and Blacks in the uk i had a fab tie belted rain coat which is navy with blue and white swirls only about £20 which i love- brightens up a rainy day x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-picking-a-spring-jacket#post-51116 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 17:39:00 +0000 marianne 51116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like the shape of the first one, but I am not sure how the khaki color would look in real life. The second one looks nice, but it's not really a coat. I like the color of the third one, but I agree with Tanya about the shape. Sorry I know I am not helping! Did you try H&#38;M? They have quite a few canvas jackets right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-picking-a-spring-jacket#post-51097 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 16:44:46 +0000 Tanya 51097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First two are both cute, I guess only you can decide what would work the best for you. I personally always try to have a white/cream jacket for spring, since it can be worn with everything, and add one in color later.</p> <p>I do not like the shape of the rain jacket, it looks quite boxy. I'd like it better if it had a belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-picking-a-spring-jacket#post-51094 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 16:39:19 +0000 Lee Hovey 51094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really need a spring/summer jacket. I have a white safari jacket from gap, a couple years old. But I think it's officially too small. I don't want to spend much at all because honestly I beat up my spring/summer jackets (shove them in the trunk when I go into a mall, etc), and I prefer a cotten canvas since I wear it almost daily, and like to just wahs it with my normal wash. So I have 2 that I am thinking of. </p> <p>I like the idea of a nice pop color, but worry it might not go with everything. Anmd I love the shape of the neutral one... I am very torn.</p> <p><a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5448&#038;pid=648706&#038;scid=648706002" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/.....=648706002</a></p> <p><a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5448&#038;pid=633455&#038;scid=633455032" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/.....=633455032</a></p> <p>Oh, and I am thinking of this one for rainy spring/summer days.<br /> <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5448&#038;pid=633437&#038;scid=633437022" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/.....=633437022</a></p> <p>Thanks! </p>
