So I’ve been eyeing up this coat for ages
www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/hybrid-down-short-coat-439711.html
but didn’t have my size but did this week.it arrived today and dh has done nothing but take the piss. “Oh it’s not the prettiest coat, is it supposed to be trendy? When I looked at a coat like that you said it was awful” (no he didn’t and neither did I) Just snipey things. Then when I said anything he’s “just having a joke, I can’t have a laugh.” yeah ok, I’m 64, I’m short, fat and no longer “trendy, I don’t go anywhere much except walking to work or dog walking. The coat is really warm, but if he’s going to be mean, I may as well send it back. (He’s not being tight btw, he’s always saying I never treat myself to anything. His dad was like that, as he likes to remind me, always being cruel about anything he wore out of the ordinary. It’s really got me down.

I like it, the joke will be on him when the weather turns and you're nice and toasty in your new coat which was also a bargain (win, win)
When it's not too cold, those crisp, sunny, winter days you can wear it open with a bright scarf, lovely.
I've just ordered a bright pink coat and my oh won't like it but if I listened to his opinion on fashion I'd have no clothes 🙄

Glad you're keeping it OP, it's a lovely looking coat. Your DH is being weird and a dick
