Can anyone help me find a new coat, pretty please.

I haven't got a lot to spend, £50 max. Needs to be long not a jacket but I am under 5ft. Would really like it to be purple.

Any help gratefully recieved :)

Slightly above your budget..

Oooh! that is very nice, gorgeous shape and colour but a little too short for my liking.

Does it have to be purple? Tesco have some great coats at the moment...

That first Very one looked good and then I read one of the reviews

This coat is a very nice fit on and i really like the style. However the Deep Purple colour is more Magenta and wouldnt really go with much and the material isnt one that would keep you warm come the winter months. Also i am a size 12 and the 14 fitted better, especially since you'll need a jumper under it. Would be nice as a work coat for the office or on top of your outfit on a night out.

Magenta is not me. Purple goes with most of my clothes. Also as I will be using it to walk the kids to school I need it to be warm.

That Asda coat is bargainous and I am tempted by the price and then get another coat as well. A girl cannot have to many coats :) but it is to short for everyday.

Love that Ellos coat as well. The lilac would match a hat I have and loving the 60's vibe with it but those sleeves are going to be an issue. My clothes are going to be showing out the bottom of them.

If it wasn't for the price I would go for that Wallis coat straight away. Wondering if I can rejig the food budget?

The one review on the last Very coat said the coat felt thin and not like wool but felt. Otherwise it would have met all the requirements.

I am a fussy mare, aren't I Grin

Bother! the only size they have left is an 8 in the Asda coat :(. I am a 16 so a tad to small.

OK back to the drawing board.

Bugger.

OMG!! I love, love, love that. It is gorgeous. As soon as DH gets home tonight I will get him to measure me and see if the 16 will fit me with a cardigan underneath.

Will have to see if I can remember my log in details as I don't use Ebay or Paypal normally because I had some real problems with them.
