Opinions on this coat please

[flywiththecrows]

I just ordered this

Would love to hear opinions about the coat and also how would you combat the loose button problem.

Thanks

Wow, I really like it! You'll really stand out from the crowd!
What do you mean by the loose button problem?

Hi, I really like it - but think it's one you would "have to try on" - I can imagine it looking fabulous on some people, dire on others.

Not quite sure what you mean by "loose button problem"?

sew the button back on. (and send it back).

sorry, the loose button problem comes from the reviews on the page. seems a lot of people have had this problem, but I ordered it before I read the reviews.

I'm a tall 14 so I reckon it would look ok, but as you say I'll see how it is when I try it on.

The thing that puts me off this coat is that I saw one quite like it in a French hypermarket about 3 years ago for E35.

E35?

I'm assuming you meant £35 but why would that put you off, I'm paying less than a tenner more.

The coat was 35 euros and looked like it cost 35 euros. Cheap and horrible.

Could be nice. with regards to the lose buttons just reinforce the buttons by sewing them on again with strong thread. My mum use to do that for me when I was a teen. Nothing worse than losing a unique button while you are running around town.

I think it's ghastly - but each to their own
