Did anyone buy the Kenneth Cole Coat at NAS that is in Store Update?

ElleH

I'm wondering is it very warm? Would you wear it in a NY winter? Does one have use for it in LA? How does it fit? Do you love it? If it was your only winter coat, besides rain coats would it be a practical color? I wear browns, blacks, greys. TIA

ETA: Orange is the color I look best in so it is not a question of suiting me. It's just a question of whether a neutral coat is best for someone who doesn't own a lot of coats. Living in LA I don't have the need to buy too many but need to be warm sometimes here too & when I go to NY or somewhere really cold when I feel too casual in a puffer coat. I don't like puffer coats but am wondering/hoping if there's a time in a cold climate I can get away with just a wool one.

I think you can get away with a wool one if it has a good percentage of wool in the fabric, and it allows a layer underneath.

It doesn't say the percentage of wool but it is a blend. It also doesn't close a lot over the front. I wonder if I am being PPP enough? I ordered it because I didn't want it to sell out but I will have to PPP more on the forum before I snip tags & wear it. I love the color & price but it has to be PPP right? Convince me to keep or return:)

I have seen this coat on several of my clients, and it made my top picks list for the NAS. Here is client Bei-Jing modeling it:

I've been to NYC in the Winter many times and you need two types of coat - a very warm puffer and a less warm wool coat because the temperatures vary. This will certainly suffice as the wool coat version. But it does not close all the way in front - something to bear in mind.

I have hesitated and hesitated over this coat because I live in Texas but I am going to pull the trigger because I want it so bad.

Thanks Angie for drawing my attention to this coat during NAS & the reminder today with your store update, especially on sale! I hope it fits me.

ETA: Angie thanks for the link too! Your client wears it with a skirt longer than the coat. Can we do that? When is it OK to do that? Do you have rules? Thanks:)
