Gorgeous!!<br /><br />And it's funny because I just told hubby this morning that I needed to buy a big kid coat this year (i.e. a REAL one and not some junky thing from Walmart that will fall apart before the end of the season! LOL).<br /><br />I'll probably be hitting JC Penneys since we don't have much else in our little neighborhood...but I'm definitely thinking Pea Coat in Red, Black or Brown. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477548540626948283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-2738297168721587172011-10-23T07:15:14.859-04:002011-10-23T07:15:14.859-04:00Love the gray color!

Seriously, like $40 for an $200 coat, or something like that. I think I wore it once (when it was 60 degrees) so I'm looking forward to it's real debut this season. <br /><br />I also have a couple pea coat styles still in service (maybe 4 or 5 years old, but for a few years I couldn't wear them because I was too fat). Cream and black, the short, mid-hip lengths.<br /><br />Hope it fits!Cat Lockmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15649247553163362685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-44940049322372710142011-10-21T21:44:19.332-04:002011-10-21T21:44:19.332-04:00That's a beaut!

We don't need much else down here. I put my new snazzy coat on when I got it last year and Bill replied instantly: SEXY! Needless to say, it's a keeper.

As a reward when I finally get to where I want to be I'm going to buy myself a cute red hooded peacoat. <br /><br />fun fact: That girl in the photo you show was actually on America's Next Top Model last season as a "real size" model. I don't think she went far, but I was rooting for her. <br /><br />I had to get a new winter coat this year and I was avoiding it because I still have about 40 pounds to go til my maintenance weight. My coat from my 300 pound days was just not working any more. <br /><br />I went to a Columbia outlet store hoping to find a nice sturdy coat. wouldn't you know that all the plus size coats they had were ugly (2 styles - One in bright purple and one in bright baby blue). And at 205 pounds I could only barely fit into their XLs. I was so miffed they didn't carry any 1Xs in decent styles. <br /><br />Anyway, I went to Eddie Bauer and got a pretty cute long down coat. I'm hoping my middle muffin doesn't affect the comfort as well!Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03346121572654687385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-10042424620184973032011-10-20T21:31:41.478-04:002011-10-20T21:31:41.478-04:00Oooh, I like! *fingers crossed for a good fit*Oooh, I like! *fingers crossed for a good fit*Cammy@TippyToeDiethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547787031318303521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-87552713484457822212011-10-20T21:03:36.361-04:002011-10-20T21:03:36.361-04:00That's a beautiful coat!

I use online coupons every time I shop. I'm hoping to get a new coat this year as the one from last year is extremely boxy looking. The problem is my bust equally as big as my stomach, so trying to find something to accomodate both is very hard to find. I end up having to go bigger, thus the boxy look. But I'm hoping to find something that will work. I also desperately need and in-between coat. It's in the high 40's/low 50's here, so a "winter" coat is too warm, but I'm freezing my tookus off without anything to cover up!

I'm going to have to check and see if there is a store anywhere near by. I hate ordering online, but often have to because of the limited options in my area. I sometimes wonder if California limits the number of options for the anorexically challenged (sometimes seems like it when my only options are Target and Wal-Mart). But, there are soooooo many cute things at Avenue I'm about to break down and order something (tomorrow is payday-common money, mommy needs a new outfit). My pouty moment though is that with so many cute sweaters and coats out this year I'm still having a hard time justifying the cost...that whole California thing again. Again, good luck and can't wait to see a picture post of you wearing it :).Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397053048120628254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-14112160983317988832011-10-20T11:10:25.007-04:002011-10-20T11:10:25.007-04:00Iæm not going to buy a jacket before my size is a ...Iæm not going to buy a jacket before my size is a bit smaller..

Can't wait to see how you like it!<br /><br />I got a new coat last year so probably no coat for me but I do like the ones with a belt like the one I got last year because it makes me feel small :) With coats especially if you don't have that defined waist it makes you look bigger with all your other stuff underneath (big warm sweaters and the like :))BrandNewBuffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02831025867273966818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-38507956125325041682011-10-20T09:25:22.186-04:002011-10-20T09:25:22.186-04:00That looks really nice!

I spent and entire excruciatingly painful day looking in stores that specialize in coats. Finally, after I'd given up and resigned myself to another year with my old coat I went to Kohl's for something else. Guess what I found there? Yep, perfect coat. Warm, but lightweight. Durable enough for snow shoveling and winter chores, but nice enough to wear with a skirt to work.another layerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756727485274694135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-74476296553785129352011-10-20T08:19:21.987-04:002011-10-20T08:19:21.987-04:00Great coat!
