Do you like it? If you do buy it. I have one similar but its a darker grey

IHaveBrilloHair · 20/09/2018 15:50

No, the fur bit looks odd and it doesn't look very warm to me.
I'm looking for a new casual winter coat too and can't find one I like.

Love the coat colour and shape but the fur trim looks a bit roadkill to me. Might be nicer in person though.

I don't really know what I'm looking for either.
I do have a khaki parka off years ago which I do use for the freezing days...but I have no "nice coats "
If you know what I mean

I have a Merrel Haven, had it for years and love it, but it's very heavy and I want something lighter but still warm and snuggly that I can chuck on to go to the supermarket.

Doesn't it have any buttons? I'm not sure how practical it would be if it was windy, as you'd be constantly trying to stop it from flapping about. There are, believe it or not, lots of nice, warm, stylish coats in Asda this year - most years, in fact. The most complimented garment I have ever owned was a cherry-red, draped collar belted wool coat from there, and it cost £40 at the time. I actually got people coming up to me in the street and asking me where I got it from, which had never happened to me before!

Cheap faux fur never looks good. If you want a cheap coat stay away from fur.

IHaveBrilloHair · 21/09/2018 15:51

I've just ordered this.

Oh that's nice, I think it would be too long on me though, I'm only 5 foot.

That Superdry jacket looks so warm

IHaveBrilloHair · 21/09/2018 17:28

I hope it is.
I really like Superdry though it's not popular on here.
I think it's good quality, washes well and lasts, I swear by their knickers!
