Hi ladies this just arrived in the post and I'm not sure about it. I like the colour on me and the length but does it make me look blocky around the shoulders all advise welcome I've never worn a jacket like this. Thanks please excuse the trackpants it's been a long night with sleepless babies

I wonder if it's a little too big. It looks very warm and cozy, but I think a smaller size would be more flattering. The color is great.

I was thinking the same seems to bunch up a bit when I use my arms. Thanks for helping ladies

I agree that the fit seems off. The shoulders look like they fit but the body looks big. I personally like coats a little big, room for sweaters, but not everyone does. It is a very nice looking coat, great color.

Thanks for the help robin, I'll keep on looking coats and jackets that fit well seem to be the most challenging to find for me

I wonder if you could find one in an ink blue - deeper yet brighter in colour, if that makes any sense...I could see this style being the ticket for life in your village...

I'm having a lot of trouble finding any coat Angie and the ladies suggested a puffer and a few places to buy, looked online as none of the shops are local to me and can't find that style in my price range, size etc puffers seem to have disappeared here they do have a lot of parkers but just got rid of one so don't want to get exact same style again besides it didn't look good on and was not water proof which would be handy here as it rains all the time. I've gave up looking today maybe hibernate for the winter

I'm sorry I don't know your location but have you tried ASOS? Shipping is free although returns are not. Prices are very affordbale though and they have lots of styles.

Here are a couple of puffers I found:

eta: just saw you are in Ireland, I think there must be a few options since it's so close by.

I think the fit is excellent. Shoulders and sleeves are perfect, and the roomy body is on trend.

I am with CocoLion -- I think it looks fantastic on you. But if you don't love it then that will not make a bit of difference! I will say, though, that as an active mom-on-the-go I find a peacoat (this style) to be a super wardrobe workhorse.

Does Boden deliver in Ireland? They have various options:
