Find me a coat. Please.

[ShiftyBagLady]

i dug out my old coat today and god its dull. at least its a reasonable fit.
i saw this one which i do quite like but i'm not sure about the bow. http://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Petit...duct.aspx?iid=436348&cid=4177&clr=Purple&sh=0 opinions on teh bow please. suppose i migth be able to take the bow off...
just had a nother look and i've seen its made of cotton and therefore not warm enough. bugger.

i did look at tk maxx butt hey dont seem to have a petites section. still, its a good excuse to go back

yeah i like teh green one apart from the sleeves. i hate balloon sleeves and i detest those puffy shoulder things that are on everything

No-one has suggested Matalan have they? Dunno what colours they do but I liked some of the ones I saw in a mag ad so thought I'd mention it. That was before I read no black/grey Not all the ones from the mag are on that page though

I'm so glad I don't give a stuff about fashion. My Barbour or my Keela does me. Both warm and windproof

Just noticed that www.monsoon.co.uk have a petite range. I clicked on coats/jackets.

Have just been raiding my cupboards and guess what I found? A coat that's probably 'on trend'.
Its a three quarter sleeved charcoal grey swing number with peter pan collar. quite structured shoulders which i dunno could be a good thing, gives it some shape. yes I think this will do for now, stillhas tags on and I had no idea it was lurking there
Also found a bag I'd forgotten about which is a lovely tapestry style thing, very good and really roomy.
found a nice sweater dress too.
Fromt his I have discovered that if ever i feel compelled to go shopping I need only rummage around in my cupboards for a while.

Sorry, but I'm not going to trawl through your posts to find out what someone might or might not have said to you. I don't know the history and I don't care. Your comments are making you look like a sad stalker. I'm browsing threads and coming across silly, petty posts by you aimed at one poster. It's boring.

 

[scifisam]

Wow, even a 'find me a coat' thread can eventually be turned into a bunfight!

Dish what out? All I did was ask foo where she got her coat.

This is a thread about coats.

I quite like this one, from Oasis:

 

[equationgirl]

I tried on the coat. it wasn't very flattering, so I didn't buy it.

I met a girl wearing a gorgeous purple big collared coat from H&M the other night. She was quite short, I think. And it looked divine. I want it.

 

[ShiftyBagLady]
