Question:
New winter coat!!
And I LOVE it! Unfortunately I can't post any pics but it's from New Look's Italian range, actually (actually) and cost a very reasonable £50. It's black knee length with a very thick twill cotton and slightly textured, one breasted with buttons all the way down and a gorgeously sexy buttoned funnel neck! The 10 (my usual size) is a lovely fit with room for a jumper underneath - in TS I would have had to buy the 12 (and pay £25 more!) for a very similar coat.
I am so happy! OH said it looked "so elegant and luxurious" which I was happy with :)
Oooh, that sounds great!
I think I've seen that - does it come in red too? If so, that's going to be my second winter coat :D I got my first the other day in Primark of all places - charcoal grey with a belt and a small funnel neck, for all of £20.

Sorry to hi-jack the thread (coat sounds lovely btw) but where in Scotland are you g_k? I always imagine you to be in the east but then you mentioned Primark and the only one I've found there is in Dundee (I'm in Lanarkshire but spend one weekend a month in Fife!).
Yes, it does come in red, g_k! It is so comfy and warm but long sleeves are a must - the arms can get a bit itchy! Might sew some lining into them :think:
ETA: Also just paid for my (probably 'replica') Dior Gaucho, it's brown and dark blue :yay:
I used to live in Edinburgh, funnily enough, but these days I'm very decidedly west coast ;) Shopping's better over here :D
