The shape I love, the texture I love. But this color is so, so, so bad for me

I LOVE that color! lol... Do you like to wear scarves with your coats? That would make it easier if the color doesnt work for you. Just a thought

That shape is everywhere this season, I think you will find a cocoon coat in a better colour. The texture of that particular coat looks so snuggly.

I think a cocoon style is possibly one of the worst for me, but this shape has really been catching my eye this fall. The color is tough.

Perhaps it was a rhetorical question, but chartreuse-y greens work well on me. I'm a medium brunette with green eyes and freckles - when I dye my hair red, people think it is natural - or they did when I was younger, anyway! People have commented that they are surprised how well these greens work on me since they generally don't really like them.
But if you don't absolutely love it, forget it. You have to really own it.

Ooh that does look so cozy! I bet if you wait it out a bit you'll be able to find one in a color that suits you better

I hear ya. It's not my favourite colour either, although it would probably work with my skin and hair. Mustardy yellows and greens are "my colours", much as I do not adore them.

I would give it a miss, and wait for a colour that you do love.

I agree with you on the color. This coat was on my Pinterest board, and I liked the overall outfit, but eventually deleted it, cuz the color made me cringe every time I viewed it.
And that wasn't even in real life.
