I want something as versatile as possible for now, but I can see myself getting a second option sometime. There's enough time in the year I'm wearing a coat, after all. </p> <p>Thanks Golden. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369575 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 04:37:16 +0000 Golden 1369575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369570 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 04:29:10 +0000 Lynne 1369570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck!&nbsp; Can't wait to see pics.....and a good way to celebrate unification :).&nbsp;&nbsp;FWIW, I'd love to see the second&nbsp;coat on you too.......I like&nbsp;the lighter colour, the interesting collar, and I because it's shorter I think it will work well over pants in the colder weather.&nbsp; But the first is def the more classic of the two, so if you're looking at building a classic winter capsule it will be a great foundation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369437 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 00:12:09 +0000 Jaime 1369437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree that the first one is a great classic cut. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369434 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 00:10:15 +0000 Janet 1369434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the first one too -- let us know how it works out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369432 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 00:02:22 +0000 Astrid 1369432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Joy and Ruth! I hope one of the sizes fits, this would be a good bargain and leave some money for other things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369404 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 23:06:10 +0000 bj1111 1369404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like the first one best, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369403 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 23:00:26 +0000 Anonymous 1369403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm late but like the first coat best too. I'm glad you got a discount. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369331 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 20:07:17 +0000 Astrid 1369331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, I just ordered the first one in dark grey, in two sizes. I did it now so that I don't miss out on the special offer. Hopefully it will work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369289 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 18:57:25 +0000 Astrid 1369289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Ornella! I only have the grey peacoat at the moment, which is too big. So starting with a classic coat in a neutral is not a bad idea. Yes, I was thinking the length of the second one might be a dealbreaker. The length of the first one should go well with my skirts and pants of course too. Then it's just a question of fit. </p> <p>ETA</p> <p>Speaking of national holiday, I just saw that there's 20% off certain brands on that website to celebrate our unity, until tomorrow. The coats too!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369278 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 18:42:18 +0000 Ornella 1369278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the first one because it is a) longer and b)&nbsp;more classic. Depending on your existing coats, IMO it's always better to start with very basic styles that will cover the most options then build up with interesting cuts. 1 can be worn with pants and skirts and those extra 5 cm&nbsp;can make the difference in&nbsp;covering the skirt. I prefer the dark grey option for you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-these-coats-1#post-1369273 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 18:37:21 +0000 Astrid 1369273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are both by a brand I know to be decent enough quality and wouldn't break the bank even though they have a fabric with high wool content. The first one is available in dark grey and dark navy, the second one in a lighter grey. The first one is very classic - too classic? The second one is shorter than the first - 89.5cm to 94cm. The 94 cm should be knee length on me. Both cost the same. Shipping is free and I could buy on account, so I could order two sizes for comparison. What do you think, is one worth a try? </p>
