Please come and slap me for liking this Joules coat.

[Fimbo]

Here. Convince me it is something my dearly departed granny would wear, stop me from hitting the buy button, please. Hit me with reality ladies.....

oh god it's really not nice, you know. Imagine it in a neutral beige and you'll see what I mean.

step away from the computer...

Yes I have a mental picture of it in beige, it really is not nice at all is it???

Thank you!

in which colour?
do you have big norks?

i quite like it tbh...sorry not to be of any help

I like it. Seriously. Skinny jeans, boots/wellies. V.useful come autumn.

I like the red.

Now see, I thought you were all going to come on and say it was hideous. Now I am all in a dither again. I have seen it in rl and tried it on yonks ago.

Hideous.

Looks like the sort of coat Princess Ann would wear teamed with a headscarf.

Horsey-(not so)chic - is that the look you're aiming for ?

Slap

Its 'orrible!

and........................

Its the middle of summer - you'll have gone off it by the time you can wear it

Gah

Princess Anne has done it. No purchase for me

I had one like this in junior school

quite like it tho

i still like it..I know it's all supposed to be aviator jackets for autumn winter but I'd look like biggles and feel as though i were in fancy dress

i was terribly horsey in my youth so this may be a form of dementia

I quite like it. It is very similar to a Barbour jacket all the cool mums (not me) at the school were wearing last Winter.

Barbour jacket

I can't decide if it looks sillier on the model (read coat) with the belt knotted around her waiste and the naffola carrying of the handbag wag style.

or

It in beige, belted and top bottom done up...

Go and spend your money elsewhere would be my advice

Now that Barbour jacket would look OK if not in that quilted fabric.

It should be in the matt, waxed cotton

Oh I have tried that Barbour Jacket on too, it was beyond hideous. If you are size 8 yes but any bigger then no.

rather fab
swoon

arf

All the cool mums seem to be size 8/10, blonde hair, skinny jeans uggs. But that was last years uniform, I await to see what they will unfurl for this Autumn.

LOL Ronaldinio.

OMG Norbert - pmsl

aviator jackets for the school run

i might get one of those see through pac a mac things that are vaguely fetish ish and totally wrong but shockingly right over a pair of pyjamas

this sort of idea

If you are painfully thin it will be okay.

Eeek Ronny!
just spat out my tea at that

I bought this coat in red & its lovely on,i dont care what anyone else thinks,its comfy & fits me lovely.

are the buttons silver or gold mamma?
