I bought this. Is it horrible?

I have been searching for a puffa coat . Lots make me look out of proportion as I’m only 5’. I bought this Hobbs one because it’s not fitted but I do look rather triangular in it. It has got a sort of Japanese vibe shapewise but I’m wondering if I’ll look like a small dalek in it.

I was all ready to say that with your height it probably isn't great. But actually then I saw the photo of you in it and it looks good.

“Small dalek” has made my evening

In honour of my new coat I have changed my username.

Tawdrylocalbrouhaha · 08/11/2018 19:24

You bastard! You stole my next user name!

SmallDalek · 08/11/2018 19:25

Oh nooooooo. I didn’t notice. Could we be SmallDalek and SmallDalek2 do you think?

Tawdrylocalbrouhaha · 08/11/2018 19:27

Ah don't worry - I'm always meaning to change my name and not doing it. I'll be ScaryFlyingShark instead!

missmouse101 · 08/11/2018 19:29

Oh I'm very jealous! I'm 5 foot but chubby so I'd look like a walking pillow in it. You look great op!

notsurewhatshappening · 08/11/2018 19:30

You look fab OP. How much did it cost?

planechocolate · 08/11/2018 19:31

I like the small cuddly dalek look Grin

Racecardriver · 08/11/2018 19:33

But why? In most parts of Britain ugly coats are unecessary. Why not buy a pretty wool coat and layer up?

SmallDalek · 08/11/2018 19:36

Oh now scary flying shark is fabulous. Sounds much more formidable than a small dalek. I darednt tell you the price. It was £179😱. Never spent that amount on any item of clothing ever.

MissMouse it’s surprisingly forgiving shapewise. I’m not slim under there but perhaps because it skims rather than clings it’s the best I’ve tried.

Much nicer on, less Arsene Wenger than I expected

😂😂😂

SmallDalek · 08/11/2018 20:42

Arsene’s is pretty similar tho but the badges make it look a bit cheap imo

That's not a puffa jacket. This is a puffa jacket: dailym.ai/2DcnRIe

He looks so warm Grin

Mishappening · 08/11/2018 20:44

A small dalek! - I love that!

Is it warm? - then that will do!

MickHucknallspinkpancakes · 08/11/2018 20:50

There are more authentic options, OP?

You don’t look like a dalek.

SmallDalek · 08/11/2018 21:03

Mick now THAT is really fabulous. Anyone wishing to replicate a dalek small or otherwise then that’s your
