I hear shearling is back in again! Which is great because I've been wearing this coat for the last three years because it keeps me warm despite it looking like I take my fashion cues from Del Boy and sometimes feeling a bit of a plonker. ;o)

Last Notes :
- I also have a real shearling one handed down from my sis but I prefer my faux one as it's lighter and easier to wear.
- I also like these two :
Topshop Faux Shearling Car Coat (This is really cute)
I gave my newish faux-shearling jacket that I bought last year away. I learned a good lesson from it: I never feel like wearing brown (sub lesson: I don't do 70's well). Too bad bacause it was cute and warm and I do like all your picks! Just not for me, I guess...
ReplyDeleteBrown isn't really an in colour at the moment I guess. Its not for everyone I agree but I don't mind this little coat - it's "greige". Topshop did a similar one to mine a few years back and I didn't indulge in the time but when I spotted mine on ASOS, I thought I'd give it a whirl and found that I really liked it. It does get worn every year from what I've noticed - that's probably because it is warm!
DeleteAnd I do normally happily embrace the 70s trend but when it was such a big thing this year - I kind of went off it. It's the 80s I didn't get on well with.
Oh you lucky girl having that in the closet! After lusting over the Acne Velocite I took the plunge and received the AllSaints Beck coat the other day:)
ReplyDeleteWho's the lucky girl??? I just saw your Allsaints Beck coat. Swoon.
DeleteI love it, Del Boy or not!! Lynne xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynne! I must love it too - it survives every cull!
DeleteIt looks so real on you - would have sworn it was suede. Looking good as always Sue x
ReplyDeleteAh that's good Natalie - I know you're extra picky about how things look too. x
DeleteThank you for the tip. I've just bought my daughter the ASOS one - she has been after one for ages...
ReplyDeleteBrilliant - she's a very lucky daughter. Can I be your daughter? ;o)
DeleteGorgeous coat Sue! My very trendy London friend picked up a fab one on eBay in the Summer for pennies (so ahead of the game!) and I was positively drooling over it, now they are going for a lot more money! You did well to hold onto to this one! xx
ReplyDeleteDid she get a real one? I do have a real one but the style of this one is more relaxed and much easier to wear.
