I feel that I have tried on or looked at every coat in my neck of the woods, I even went to Leeds for the day and tried there. I am seriously freezing in my current coat but feel like complete frump in my (very warm but ugly) fleece jacket which I cannot wear to work! I cannot bear to think of being this cold for the rest of winter (and looking this shabby too!) Please help me [sob]

I'm after 3/4 length, I can't be doing with long ones as they drag on the ground.
Cannot be a swing coat or double breasted or voluminous in any way as I look hideous and much larger in any of these styles
I'm a size 16
I'm a pale redhead so would prefer not black, but don't think I can be that fussy now!
My budget is up to £200 as I was given some money and sold my other coat

I have currently a thin red 3/4 length wool one from Next which cost about £70 but is looking v.shabby as I've worn it non-stop for 3 years+. It's v-neck, fitted and suits me really well but can I find anything like it as a replacement?!!!!

This red one from Hobbs was lovely but not in my size online or in the Leeds shop (also the brown tweed one but not avail. either)

OOOh good am so glad you like it.
