It is the one reason I often hesitate on a purchase.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-winter-coat-recs#post-2325768 Thu, 08 Jun 2023 20:30:02 +0000 Ket 2325768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jaime, </b>thank you &lt;3 I haven't heard of TheRealReal, so will check that out. <br /> <div><br /> </div><div><b>Sharan, </b>thank you &lt;3 I forgot about the annual Nordstrom's sale, so I'll keep that in mind!</div><div><br /> </div><div><b>Robin,</b> thank you &lt;3 I have used Poshmark for sure! I could go crazy on Posh! My one hang-up is they don't offer returns. I've had some misses with fit on previous items, and ended up with an item I couldn't use, sitting in my closet and waiting to resell. Not against Poshmark, just not always convenient. But I will keep them in mind!</div><div><br /> </div><div><b>Angie</b>, thank you &lt;3 Sodding-- miss hearing that great British word! I haven' heard of Karen Millen at all before.

I love your taste in coats. Have you looked at Poshmark? I have had some good luck there and they can give precise measurements. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-winter-coat-recs#post-2325691 Thu, 08 Jun 2023 03:41:02 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2325691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Those are some lovely inspo pics. It's so sad, and expensive, to have to discard so many treasured pieces of your wardrobe. <br /></div><div>You might check out the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale next month for the coat selection. <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-winter-coat-recs#post-2325685 Thu, 08 Jun 2023 01:42:15 +0000 Jaime 2325685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a nightmare! Well of course I have no shopping advice apart from stalking TheRealReal etc. I am sure you can find some gorgeous coats there and they probably will go on sale as the summer progresses in the Northern Hemisphere.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-winter-coat-recs#post-2325668 Wed, 07 Jun 2023 23:25:32 +0000 Ket 2325668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, dear Fabbers!!<div><br /> </div><div>Due to the mold issue, I'm losing my winter down coat. So, I'm in need of a new winter coat. I would like it to be:</div><div>Affordable</div><div>Bit glamorous but functional enough for mom-on-the-go</div><div>Probably plus-size</div><div>Shapely, if it's even possible, for an hourglass figure. </div><div><br /> </div><div>Warmth is not a huge priority; it would be nice, but because of mold treatment and weight fluctuations, I'm not investing in anything major unless I find an incredible deal. </div><div><br /> </div><div>The first two photos are from Norwegian Wool website. WAY WAY outside my budget. (And probably not even offered in my current size.) But I did love the idea of them! Also love the wrap coats with deep shawl collars. And then a couple of Amazon and Modcloth coats I really like. <br /> <div><br /> </div><div>I'm in no rush. In the end I may just hunt through Old Navy, Macy's, and Nordstrom Rack this autumn, and take what I find and can afford. But I thought I would ask you all for some ideas. Our summers are very short, so I'm thinking of winter coats now. </div></div> </p>
