I have that amazing tailor who shortened the sleeves on a leather jacket with zippers on the sleeves.&nbsp; Great idea to take it to her to see what she might be able to do.&nbsp; It does look perfect on the shoulder and sleeve, doesn't it?&nbsp; &nbsp;I have not tried a regular fit.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015589 Tue, 26 Mar 2019 19:50:01 +0000 Sara L. 2015589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The coat looks great on you and the color is fun and cheerful.&nbsp; Too bad it feels tight (although it doesn't look tight), that would bug me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015585 Tue, 26 Mar 2019 19:42:34 +0000 nemosmom 2015585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a happy fun coat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015571 Tue, 26 Mar 2019 18:32:40 +0000 Anonymous 2015571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!

Just so fresh and spring like. I’m sorry it isn’t an ideal fit - I have ups and downs with Boden. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015231 Mon, 25 Mar 2019 17:36:30 +0000 Gretchen 2015231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks lovely. But I can understand the frustration if it fits tightly. I have a similar issue w a Boden dress from last season. Had to take it in to see if they can ease the shoulder seams. It was possible - might be an option for you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015176 Mon, 25 Mar 2019 15:02:32 +0000 JAileen 2015176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too bad it feels tight, because it looks perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015171 Mon, 25 Mar 2019 14:48:29 +0000 Angie 2015171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>The coat doesn't look tight on the elbows though. In fact, the sleeves look roomy. How odd is that?</p> <p>Have you tried a regular size?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015165 Mon, 25 Mar 2019 14:31:55 +0000 lyn67 2015165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You made my day with this cheery&nbsp; bright and sunny outfit, Laurie, thank you!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015159 Mon, 25 Mar 2019 14:24:07 +0000 Helena 2015159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks gorgeous in any case, and I love how you've accessorized with daffodils - such a beautiful flower </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-and-my-boden-coat#post-2015156 Mon, 25 Mar 2019 14:22:34 +0000 Laurie 2015156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wore my cheerful yellow Boden coat out on a beautiful but cold spring day this weekend. This coat was not warm enough for 38 degrees F when I left, but I got a lot of compliments all morning, and it matched the daffodils I picked up at Trader Joe’s! Love the color and style. </p> <p>I think it is too small, unfortunately. It’s very tight in the elbows when I bend my arms, and feels tight across the shoulders. I was wearing a fairly thin cotton top under it. Could never wear a sweater of any weight. My green Boden blazer with blue polka dots has the same fit issue for me. I am not sure if it is the size (6P) or if Boden is just not for me, as I am not sure these problems improve with sizing up. Sleeve length is perfect at least! </p>
