Can I rock this coat?

[JesusTapdancingChrist]

Have wanted a long wool coat for forever but am very short, very skint and very cool toned so most that I see are too long/too ££ and/or camel/brown colours which just don't suit me.

Found this in a charity shop this morning and think I love it. It's a very pale silvery grey which works really well with my colouring.

My style is quite eccentric retro/80's so the relaxed fit and lack of fastenings really appeal to that.

Would wear with jeans/jumpers or dresses and tights with either Dr martens or brogues. Was thinking some colourful scarves could add interest?

Hit or miss?

Very cool on you, op! I like the length.

I've got those shoes too! They're the best.

Love long coats. I predict a comeback for knee length boots as well.

Love love love it. Agree don't touch the length.

Like your style, you definitely rock it!

Love, love, love

I suspect it's come from somewhere like TK Maxx. Lovely coat and it really suits you OP.

Love the whole look. Brilliant find!

You suit it and it makes you look French

Which is good, French people are known for their classic sophisticated style

It looks fab! Where are all of these great charity shops you have such good finds in?

Up here in Leeds @Timbuktu - we do seem to have unusually good charity shops and hundreds of them! Plus it's my main hobby so am probably statistically more likely to find the good stuff than most .

@Prosecco as a stumpy Irish woman that's a great compliment. I have never been described as looking French before .

Oh OP it's a dream. You look great. May have to buy the full priced one it looks so good!

OP I AM ALSO IN LEEDS! Am going to have to start looking for better charity shops!

I love it. I think it's the mix of elegance and casual. A look I can never achieve! I think he length makes it, shorten it would make a pockets and lapels look odd. Great find. All our local charity shops are full of bobbly primark.

that is an ABSOLUTE FIND
looks ace
