I'm glad this coat doesn't disappoint! Your comments are so kind, thank you all.</p> <p>FuzzyLogic - yes I would have initially chosen the moss or forest myself<br /> as I love green wildly. However, I must say this tawny golden color<br /> (I'm guessing it is Sahara Sand) was more luscious IRL than I could have<br /> imagined, kind of like wearing a lion (tame).</p> <p>Gryffin - I hope the tides of fortune turn and you can deck yourself in such duds from head to toe! A soft spot for jawas! I love it! I do too, they didn't deserve their fate on Tatooine. Woo-tini!!!</p> <p>Angie - I am thrilled you love it too. It apparently brought out the runway model inside me, I found myself twirling and posing like nobody's business.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---renaissance-coat#post-1249527 Mon, 12 May 2014 14:07:40 +0000 Angie 1249527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer to the power of Killer. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---renaissance-coat#post-1249382 Mon, 12 May 2014 12:03:15 +0000 Janet 1249382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So much fun!

It was a long day of pressing the flesh, but the highlight was meeting a woman who creates incredible garments. Her coats are very piratey, made of beautiful brocades in carpet-bag colors. They have velvety lapels and amazing details.</p> <p>Now some girls are shaped like Queen Amidala, and some are shaped like Princess Leia. I am shaped like a different Star Wars character. When DH saw this video he said at first, "these aren't the droids you're looking for." Then after a bit he said, "You're a jawa!" And much as it pains me to admit it, the man is right. I am a jawa.</p> <p>The coat was so beautiful and well made, I felt amazing when the seamstress put it on me. As I walked down this aisle many people came out to see me, the coat has that kind of power. You will notice I look better than usual, no I'm not wearing makeup or lifts. It's the coat. I think it has a +3 charisma or something.</p> <p>Here's a video of me wearing it, taken by a professional videographer (my husband) :D<br /><a href="http://humanint.com/videosfun.php" rel="nofollow">http://humanint.com/videosfun.php</a></p> <p>And here is the seamstress's website if you'd like to see the many other lovely things she creates. The item I am wearing is the Winterfield Coat.<br /><a href="http://samiah.com/_Samiah-Womens-Clothing.htm" rel="nofollow">http://samiah.com/_Samiah-Womens-Clothing.htm</a></p> <p>I told her about YLF and she was smitten with the term "urban warrior princess" among other fab things I told her. I wouldn't be surprised if she visited here soon.</p> <p>Also here are a couple of other ladies wearing her fantastic garments.</p> <p>Toodles!</p> <p> </p>
