There were only 2 size 8s left in my whole state so I'm glad I did!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1906088 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 15:39:08 +0000 Angie 1906088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Anne.</p> <p>Size 8 looks better on the sleeves.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1906056 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 14:18:30 +0000 Janet 1906056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the 8 looks better and you'll be more comfortable in it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1906047 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 13:48:09 +0000 Amy Isabella 1906047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think the eight fits better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1906013 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 12:29:33 +0000 Anonymous 1906013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m in Jenni’ s camp in this one- either will do. I think you look great in the navy ( sorry teal one didn’t work out but these are great on you)</p> <p>Btw love that dress or skirt under the trench- show is more please.</p> <p>Cee - what a history lesson- I don’t think I will ever again put on my trench with out thinking about grenades. Lol- talk about an accessory with “pop” factor! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1906012 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 12:28:19 +0000 Style Fan 1906012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great trench, Anne.&nbsp; I agree that the 8 fits you best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905957 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 08:18:36 +0000 anne 1905957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jenni, I agree that Forever New is nice - I like the layout and how things aren't crumpled. I've bought a few things from them in the last few years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905951 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 07:36:30 +0000 Jenni NZ 1905951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks lovely in both sizes. Choice would be on practicality and comfort then, depending on what Angie says? I've never owned a trench. I feel like now I couldn't get one to do up around my middle! I'm lucky to have my swing shaped warm coat.<br /> Forever New is a nice shop, I like it but don't think I've purchased except for some tiny earrings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905950 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 07:34:52 +0000 Cee 1905950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's weird that for some decades after WW1, trench coats ( they got their name from the trenches the soldiers fought in ), were still sold with heavy metal rings attached to the belt.</p> <p>...Originally the purpose was for hooking hand grenades onto them ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905947 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 07:30:00 +0000 Aurore 1905947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think the shoulders and sleeved of the&nbsp;eight look better. Based on the photos, both sizes look good at the waist and hips. It's a beautiful trench. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905941 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 07:08:43 +0000 anne 1905941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jane and Jussie. The shoulders are often the tight point for me (despite my pear body type) and even the eight is possibly a little tighter than ideal - but most of my fitted jackets are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905926 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 06:36:30 +0000 jussie 1905926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the eight too. The shoulders of the smaller one look a little tight. It's a lovely jacket on you. Nice with that skirt too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905917 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 06:13:20 +0000 Jane 1905917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ahh, that’s good, and good that you’ve other options for when it’s cold </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905915 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 06:07:57 +0000 anne 1905915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jane, eight feels much better to me too. Room for thinner jumpers, but I have other coats if I want to go thick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905912 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 06:02:40 +0000 Jane 1905912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good! Not Angie, but I think the 8 as the sleeve length looks better, but I’m not certain, because the fabric on the upper arms looks neater and less of it on the smaller one. How do they feel - have you room for a jumper underneath? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trenches-for-angie#post-1905910 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 05:39:36 +0000 anne 1905910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Forever new trench<br /> Picture one is a six<br /> Picture two is an eight. </p>
