Can I wear a long grey coat with brown boots?

[meltedmarsbars]

Or is that a total No-No?

Please help, Style Gurus!

if Net-a-porter says that grey and brown is okay then it's probably okay

I prefer grey and black though, personally.

I am by no means a style guru but I love grey and brown together.

at the heels! And my coat did not cost 3 grand!

Yes of course

oh.. well if your coat didn't cost 3 grand it's probably cheap and nasty and won't go with anything. Can you save up?

[hwink]

Oh bugger.

Maybe I will just leave it in the wardrobe and go out shivering again...

[hsad]

don't be daft. How grey and how brown?

Lol at LTEC!![hgrin]

I wear gray coar with brown boots. Looks great.

Er, how grey is grey? Narrow knee-length fitted grey wool with cream fur collar

Mid-brown flat non-shiny boots (don't do heels).

do you think it looks good?

My combo is similar colours to the Net a Porter link.

Haven't tried it yet! Coat is still in cupboard!

Wore jeans and wellies today.

well, it's got to be better than jeans and wellies. Wear it, stay warm and enjoy

Next question:

What underneath?

knickers would be good.

where are we talking?? walking the dog? work? school run? supermarche?

Ok, have pants, not knickers!

I'm going to a Coffee Morning, don't want to look like the sad old SN mum who never has time to clean her fingernails let along coordinate her outfits!

[hgrin]

have you any kind of navy and white ensemble you could wear? stripe top, for eg?

Why?

because it would go with grey and brown you plank!!!!

Oh blardy hell, I'm way outta my depth here!

No, no stripes available in my "ensembles" !

Okay. I am trying to help, despite my poncetastic flingo. When is said coffee morning? have you got time to go to Gap and get one of their merino jumper dresses in charcoal? here

and tights like these in purple - I mean, LOL at the pic, but you get my drift

Jeans are always good. Smart ones, not boyfriend baggies.

What about tops? What do you have?

I wear a lot of tshirts with jumpers - budget doesn't stretch to cashmere so bought lots of jumpers from M&S, thin and soft woollens.

I really did snort into the keyboard when I read "have you got time to go to Gap..."

Nope, no time, coffee morning is tomorrow at 10.

Don't worry, I could always wear jeans (again) That dress is TOO SHORT for me!
That second model is not even wearing a skirt!!!

Will have arummag tomorrow. Shame nut my wardrobe is in dd2's room, she's a light sleeper so can't do anything now.

Tnx for your advice,

Night night!
