It's finally gotten cold enough to drag out bring out my vintage coats. One of these days I will show you them together in one post but for now, I'm wearing the emerald green vintage coat. I got this off ebay several years ago and I love the big platter collar and the emerald color. The only downside was the horrible plaid lining. So I try to keep the coat closed when I'm wearing it unless I have on a favorite sweater and then the clashing patterns is oh, so chic. Yeah right.
So I confess to you that I'm guilty of committing a horrible fashion faux pas and it's not tucking my shirts in. I hate it. I refuse. I won't do it. Ever. So now that you know how I feel about it, I really should've tucked in my shirt for this look. The sweater bunched up all day leaving a wasteland of shirt hanging out and I kept yanking the sweater down to make sure I didn't look like I slept in this. I didn't really. So next time I probably won't tuck in the shirt, I'll choose a different sweater. That's how I roll.
But really this was supposed to be a post about my vintage coat and not my wardrobe malfunctions.
What do you think about the coat?

As I was reading your post is started snowing! I think your green coat is beautiful and I love the detailed buttons. Winter layering always leaves me feeling a bit bunchy, wrinkly, and un-tucked as well, but I think you look great in these photos.
ReplyDeleteLove the colour of your coat!

Ok, now I am beginning to get a bit 'green' here.. where is this place you got all those fabulous vintage numbers of yours? This is in perfect condition and what a great find, I'd say.

That coat is gorgeous and the colour so de jour right now too. Loving the detailing on the buttons and as for your shirts I totally get it too. I really dislike tucking them in too, though sometimes I fold them in slightly, they do roll down from time to time but meh, better than tucking them hehehe!

Emerald is such a beautiful color, and so in right now :) This coat couldn't be more perfect! I hate tucking in my shirt too! But since I have a huge problem to find a well-fitting shirt in the first place, I don't face this dilemma that much often :)
ReplyDeleteHave the loveliest of weekends, my dear!
