I have been so into camel this year and you are rocking this color and cut fabulously! I would think that it would look great open (with belt hanging, sort of casual chic) and buttoned up and tied (a bit more formal but also chic). A win-win! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344580 Fri, 17 Nov 2023 01:46:38 +0000 AJ 2344580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for experimenting!&nbsp; Great choice and the tote looks nice too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344554 Thu, 16 Nov 2023 23:25:56 +0000 Ket 2344554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a gorgeous color and coat for you!

Which can be a hassle! And when you wear a belt with jeans, you are double belting, which can be bulky and uncomfortable on the midsection.&nbsp;</p> <p>Soooooo, wear the coat in a way that WORKS FOR YOU :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344261 Wed, 15 Nov 2023 00:39:54 +0000 SarahD8 2344261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh very nice!

Nice to have the perfect tote in your wardrobe already. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344240 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 20:27:47 +0000 Helena 2344240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! Angie, I'm so glad you approve of me going off the map and trying some earthier tones ... life is short, why the heck not hehehe I agree, I especially am enjoying this thrown over leggings and sneakers for unexpected or quick errands ... it adds some nice polish without being impractical.&nbsp;</p> <p>I've been wearing it mostly open, which is a reflection of the current weather ... on colder days I've buttoned and left the belt loose, or else not bothered with the buttons and just tied it close, but that is more when I'm just hopping into the car.</p> <p>Do you all think it's better tied or untied? I'm also seeing styling of belted coats with the belt just casually tied at the back (so it looks unbelted from the front) ...&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344239 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 20:24:13 +0000 BlueJay 2344239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ooooo! I love the camel colour on you, Helena! The texture of the coat and tote look so luxurious too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344237 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 20:21:58 +0000 merwoman 2344237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely colour on you, looks very elegant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344236 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 20:19:30 +0000 Angie 2344236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What <b>Suz </b>said!&nbsp;</p> <p>The classic looks great on you, <b>Helena!</b> Love how a wool coat elevates a simple outfit. Smashing colour on you - yes, you wear earth tones well too. Great with black and blues. </p> <p>Do you wear it tied at the waist, or untied? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344234 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 20:15:50 +0000 Helena 2344234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you!</p> <p>Suz, it has belt loops but I would have no issue leaving the belt off if it was a bother ... they are not particularly noticeable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---new-coat-in-a-new-to-me-neutral#post-2344232 Tue, 14 Nov 2023 20:07:52 +0000 Roberta 2344232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The right camel hue is hard to find!

I like the camel on you. Great experiment that seems to be working! It's great with denim, too. Classic and cozy.&nbsp;</p> <p>Can you wear it without the belt, too?&nbsp; </p>
