Ive been holding out for this coat for ages but its ALWAYS sold out despite next telling me they were getting new stock in, they still havent. anyway, i really need to get a coat and i really like this one, needs to be practical for the school run but i think although this is a parka it is smarter looking than others ive seen as wouldnt normally wear a parka.

I'm a size 8ish and i did want a petite one so the arms arent too long but will get a regular if need be!

oh and i dont want a padded puffa type as id look like a michelin man at being only 5'3!

Have you checked in store? the portsmouth cascades branch had loads 2 weeks ago. I tried one on and its very padded made me look huge, looks much nicer in the directory although i am a size 14. The branches don't seem to like checking the stock at other branches now perhaps you will need to phone round yourself?

This one is similar, and looks nice the flesh

topshop not the same, but just an idea, maybe too short.

DP petite, but no hood.

esprit more casual and ££

I tried that one in the Scunthorpe Next only last weekend. There were plenty on the rails.

Thanks for looking ladies, i want one past my bum to keep the drafts out and a hood is a must! I think i will ring round some of the branches
