Re: Items to which I am allured
Is that the one on the first link you posted? It looks a lot longer on you.

Jack Wills (not somewhere I normally shop!).
PD, I am not as tall as a model which probably explains the difference!
My only hesitation is it being double breastfed. Yes breastfed autocorrect, that's the word I wanted. I loved that burberry one and swore I'd buy a cheaper one in the same colour if I ever found one so I feel like I should get it. I need to wait and see if I get some birthday cash first though.

Re: Items to which I am allured
I love the colour on you and have the same (worse on me) issue with double-breasted coats. I think it's the angle of the photo though and the combo of the same colour jeans and ballet flats that is making it look double-breasty. I think with a skirt and boots it would look amazing.

I do love the colour so much. I'm going to forget the double breasted issue, Its not like I actually look slender in any coat, really.

I love this shirt so much. I'm planning to purchase if I get a Warehouse discount code.

Re: Items to which I am allured
I went in COS thanks to MrsDanvers and kind of want this. It’s totally unfitted so a bit man repeller-y. It has pockets and the nicest 60s neckline
Is it too COS?

I love it. I really like Cos dresses and am wearing something similar today.

Re: Items to which I am allured
It's really thin silky but not shiny material so I kind of wonder what season it's meant to be for? Also whether it would go with tights (am thinking not). I would also have to make an occasion to wear it.

Re: Items to which I am allured
I really like it, the neck especially. A slip underneath could make it work with tights (if it's the material rubbing against the tights that you're worried about).

I have that in emerald green and love it! I wear it with black opaque tights though that's easier with green. I also wear a thin long-sleeves top under it in winter. You must buy it immediately. I often wear my navy shift dresses with dark plum or grey tights and grey ankle boots.

Re: Items to which I am allured
I want this. I think it's probably not that warm, meaning I will need another warmer coat as well. But I like it.
