I did have a laugh <b>bj1111</b>'s comment that I would need to run around with a bottle of gin in the Novak coat. <b>UmmLila</b> has a very good suggestion of a shorter white coat, I have always admired Angie's military short white coat.</p> <p><b>The Cat</b> makes a good point that this coat has a 60's vibe which is very true to my style as I love the clean lines of much of the 60's clothing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wool-coat---the-reality-and-the-inspiration/page/2#post-2005840 Mon, 25 Feb 2019 11:52:21 +0000 The Cat 2005840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colour and style--adorable on you.

I agree with Suz though.... if a Novak coat becomes available you better snap it up aswell </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wool-coat---the-reality-and-the-inspiration/page/2#post-2005670 Sun, 24 Feb 2019 20:41:17 +0000 Suz 2005670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful coat on you, Bijou! I am sure you'll get so much pleasure from it. It looks elegant, fresh, a bit retro. I see the echo of the Novak. Plus, I think you deserve TWO gorgeous coats and if you ever find a replica of the Novak, that will look equally amazing on you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wool-coat---the-reality-and-the-inspiration/page/2#post-2005634 Sun, 24 Feb 2019 18:22:52 +0000 Angie 2005634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*happy dance*</p> <p>It's a STUNNING versatile and pretty coat.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wool-coat---the-reality-and-the-inspiration/page/2#post-2005631 Sun, 24 Feb 2019 18:18:48 +0000 Bonnie 2005631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the color, the fit, and the vibe.

It is perfect for most aspects of my lifestyle - work and casual.</p> <p><b>LisaP</b> makes a great point about pastel coats. I did have a blush wool coat that I wore out, something that rarely happens to me with coats, the lining ended up ripping from being worn so much. This blue coat is similar in weight and length to that coat.</p> <p>For any Australians considering buying this, I sized down from my usual size. This is an Australian size 6 (US size 2) which is why the fit on me is different to that of the model who has a more oversized look. The size 8 (US size 4) was similar on me to that of the model. I went for this size because I will not layer jackets underneath this coat and have a larger and warmer coat currently in my wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wool-coat---the-reality-and-the-inspiration#post-2005485 Sun, 24 Feb 2019 02:39:27 +0000 Jessikams 2005485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So pretty and thatcolor will work well with your wardrobe </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wool-coat---the-reality-and-the-inspiration#post-2005481 Sun, 24 Feb 2019 02:24:59 +0000 Anonymous 2005481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The real life interpretation of the dream.

As you said, it's super easy over casual wear, and even more fun to wear dressed up.
