We went to Mexico in the summer and people there were super impressed. Also he went to Spain several years ago with a group and he was the big hero as the only one who could speak the language! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2073022 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 03:37:18 +0000 Anonymous 2073022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Then a packable puffer would be perfect. I hope you speak Spanish. You will need it in Madrid. If you are there for the changing of the guard at the pLace, be sure to go. Take the siesta time in the afternoon seriously. Everything closes dow and dinner is late.. See the art galleries. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2073017 Tue, 29 Oct 2019 03:28:00 +0000 tammyw 2073017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Joy - not yet.

I’ve been drooling over this particular style. The quartz is on sale on another site. Do you think it would be a good choice for me? And is it TTS? Was thinking I should maybe try Small? Unless they fit a bit small In which case I could try Medium.</p> <p><a href="https://www.soiakyo.com/us/en/jacinda-lightweight-down-coat-with-hood/JACINDA-N.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.soiakyo.com/us/en/.....NDA-N.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072500 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 17:32:19 +0000 tammyw 2072500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Angie - Thank you!

Lightweight is key for packing so I like idea of a puffer being able to pack small! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072495 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 16:59:45 +0000 Janet 2072495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would think the teddy style coat would be a bit heavy and bulky for travel (and possibly a bit warm for your climate in winter), but the look is cute and current. </p> <p>I would think more along the lines of a trench or a sleeker, lighter weight puffer if you want something a bit more classic with more longevity. Both of those kind of styles travel well in my experience. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072483 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 16:22:45 +0000 Angie 2072483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A trench coat comes to mind first.</p> <p>You have super cute style, and beautiful hair!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072425 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 12:56:22 +0000 kkards 2072425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>and check out Athleta...i'm having trouble with their website this morning, but i've gotten great outerwear there </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072415 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 12:39:44 +0000 kkards 2072415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uniqlo is a great recommendation or i like these...suprisingly from JJill...lightweight and yet warm, and they look better in person.&nbsp;<br />i perfer &nbsp;puffers for travel, they pack soooo well and if the day warms up and you want to take them off and carry they are lightweight, or if the weather goes the other way, its easy layer over or under them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072362 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 02:29:56 +0000 Jaime 2072362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am thinking short puffer (Uniqlo style) if you are liable to be in rainy weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072356 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 02:19:06 +0000 Bonnie 2072356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first coat in red for the holidays. If you are going to get cold weather in SD it will probably be during the Nov./Dec,/Jan holiday season, so the coat will be useful for many years.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072323 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 01:29:50 +0000 tammyw 2072323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking about puffer too.

A short packable puffer would be another idea, since you'd use it for travel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072316 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 01:19:51 +0000 rachylou 2072316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh the teddy for New Years would be a lot of fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-coat-to-get-classic-and-lightweight#post-2072306 Sun, 27 Oct 2019 00:42:29 +0000 SarahD8 2072306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep.

Perhaps something like one of these? I don’t want to spend a fortune for something I won’t wear a ton but i would like it to last for quite a few winters. </p> <p>I am so open to all ideas!!</p> <p><a href="https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/us/p/wool-blend-dad-coat-32316819?categoryId=12252&#038;seq=03&#038;faceout=life" rel="nofollow">https://www.abercrombie.com/sh.....ceout=life</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/us/p/faux-fur-coat-35695819?categoryId=12252&#038;seq=01&#038;faceout=model" rel="nofollow">https://www.abercrombie.com/sh.....eout=model</a></p> <p>Attaching some pictures of me / my style.
