I agree that the cape is too long. I do see what you are saying:&nbsp;the&nbsp;hem&nbsp;hits me at my widest&nbsp;point, which is never a great look on me. Good fit but not the best length. </p> <p>Good advice, I will think about returning it.&nbsp;</p> <p>I actually think a lighter weight topper, like a moto jacket style would be a more versatile wardrobe addition at&nbsp; this point. </p> <p></p> <p>THANKS!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742771 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 19:50:21 +0000 Angie 1742771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The cape portion is just a little too long on you, Chris. Remind me - are you petite?&nbsp;</p> <p>I wonder whether you shouldn't hold out for something longer. The length on this trench is hitting you at an awkward spot, although the fit is nice. What do you think?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742740 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 18:23:51 +0000 Chris987 1742740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are some pics...and wanted to note that I already have regular length trenchcoats in black and light camel that serve as raincoats. This one would be more like a jacket in terms of usage. After trying it on I think it's a bit too heavy for indoor wear, at least it is with the cape on. </p> <p></p> <p>1 &amp; 2 with light brown flares and red/brown/black animal print scarf, black booties, cape on<br />3- with red straight leg jeans, grey tneck, black loafers, cape on<br />4 – same without cape </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742728 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 17:51:53 +0000 JAileen 1742728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We need to see it on you. I think I would lose the cape, too. Even though I love ponchos, the cape seems over the top. I would feel like I was wearing a costume. The underlying jacket seems pretty nice. Is black a color you want to emphasize in your wardrobe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742720 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 17:37:26 +0000 Ledonna N. 1742720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd like to see it on also.&nbsp; DRAMA in a good way.&nbsp; I like that you can split it out.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742715 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 17:24:32 +0000 Cerinda 1742715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a lovely jacket. &nbsp;I really like the cape --dramatic but not too too. &nbsp;Did you try the jacket unbuttoned, but with the cape on? &nbsp;I liked it that way too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742672 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:54:37 +0000 Suz 1742672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely jacket -- let's see it on you and also with the cape! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742670 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:51:18 +0000 Sara L. 1742670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, great jacket! I probably would have overlooked it online too with that cape. I love the short length and the belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742663 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:44:40 +0000 Vix 1742663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Chris --</p> <p>If it works for your weather and lifestyle, then it may be a keeper for sure.</p> <p>I'm on foot in windy rain a lot and this wouldn't be enough coverage for me. But Unfrumped has referenced the perfect type of use assuming your weather is drier and/or it's more of a car-to-door situation.</p> <p>ps I actually like it with the cape, but of course I could see that being overwhelming, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742660 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:35:01 +0000 unfrumped 1742660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! I know if can seem wasteful to forgo the cape but if the main item is great and price is ok then that's great.<br /> I still want a longer length trench but I find short trenches very useful over all these longer heavier tops when a blazer won't work and I don't need to wear the topper once I'm indoors at work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742640 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:11:39 +0000 Angie 1742640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't remove the belt!&nbsp;</p> <p>I LOVE the cape. Lets see it on, Chris.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742634 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:02:17 +0000 Anonymous 1742634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like it best sans capelet. I think it is a keeper! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/short-trenchcoat---kr#post-1742589 Fri, 21 Oct 2016 12:49:34 +0000 Chris987 1742589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found this short trenchcoat at Nordstrom and it followed me home. I would not have paid any attention to it online, because of the detachable capelet which I'm not crazy about. However, without the capelet, it's a great little short trenchcoat and fits me perfectly. I wanted a few more fall/sprint outerwear choices and although I probably overdo black, it makes me feel happy to wear it. Grounded or something. </p> <p>I think this also might be wearable as a topper indoors too...maybe with the belt removed. Need to try some ideas. </p> <p>...and....only one was left, it was my size, and 60% off! </p> <p>Keep/Return? I think keep. And get a leopard bag </p>
