Royal blue coat?

I bought a wool cropped peacoat (single breasted) and its bright bright blue. I loved it in the shop, but at home its sooooo bright.

The fit is very flattering to me and I didn't want a black coat...

Opinions?

sounds lovely. link? you can always wear navy scarf and hat to tone it down a bit.

as fishie says,a scarf or something just to tone it down a bit - hey, it's nearly your wedding day !

I got a bright clue coat last year (Boden ) and I always get lots of compliments when I wear it - though I do find it a bit distinctive iyswim - saw someone in town wearing the same one the other day and felt an irrational urge to hide. It seems to go with everything colour-wise

I went out in it and my friend said it looked nice. I don't have an exact photo of the coat tbh, its from a random shop. Um.
