Nice winter coat, under £100

[TrillianSlasher]

Any thoughts/suggestions?

I want something smartish and warm but not too bulky - no belts or double-breastedness.

I'll probably end up with black (boring but sensible) but will entertain other colours. I always think red/purple coats look very striking.

Come and window-shop with me!

like this?
or this?

[TrillianSlasher]

Oooh, I forgot you could get Asda clothes online!

M&S one looks like it has weird short sleeves - I need looooong sleeves if poss.

[TrillianSlasher]

What other shops are there? Where does one buy coats? People on MN always shop in places I've never heard of and they have nice things.

[frogs]

ebay.

This is rather fine.

I like this too, though not ebay.

I like the Boden velvet coats too, in the subtler colours

[TrillianSlasher]

I really like the shape of the Boden one, but am trying to limit to £100.

The Karen Millen one looks a bit shapeless, bt maybe it's just how it's hanging.

[TrillianSlasher]

What do you think of this?

[TrillianSlasher]

This is gorgeous, but too much money

[bodycolder]

this is very nice and flattering in rl

[TrillianSlasher]

Is that the same as this one? Not so keen on the 'taupe' colour. but it looks a nice shape.

[bodycolder]

Not sure it is such a lovely coat the picture makes it look quite dull!

[TrillianSlasher]

Which one are you talking about bodycolder?

[TrillianSlasher]

Oh sorry I get it. I think the black must be the same one, it has the same name and exact same price. Just need to find a free delivery code so I can try it on.

[bodycolder]

I never saw the black.It looks lovely though

[sugardumpling]

I like the one from tesco, lovely colour. I have been coat shopping today at Bluewater, lost count of how many shops I went in, and came out with nothing. Went food shopping and ended up getting one from asda

[TrillianSlasher]

WHich coat did you get sugardumpling?

[Doyouthinktheysaurus]

That one from tesco is very nice.

I bought it and took it back because it's a bit short on the leg for me but it was lovely. Really nice colour, the purple and a nice shape.

I would say it came to just above mid thigh. Not long enough to cover the tunic tops I wear which is why it went back.

[sugardumpling]

Not sure how to do links but it is on the asda website, its the black military coat £25, I love bargains me

[TrillianSlasher]

Hmm, mid-thigh is a bit short for what I want. Maybe I should get two cheapy coats rather than one good one.

I've currently got one quote for repairing the lining of my old coat, £65!
