Want: London Car Coat from Kiyonna

I loooove this coat from Kiyonna. It's unique but not so super trendy that it will be out of style by next winter. You can see the ruffle detail much better if you click through to the product page. It also comes in black but I really love the plaid. It's available in sizes 10/12 through 30/32 for $250. You can save $25 by using the code WARMWINTER and orders over $100 ship free.

Speaking of coats: what type do you prefer? Do you have more than one? I have a gray pea coat but I'm thinking I might need a second, cuter coat for when it's not crazy cold outside and I can handle some style over substance. I've only ever had one coat at a time so that's a different mindset for me.

oh, that's a super cute coat! living in florida, i don't NEED 2 coats, but i have one fairly basic one and also a velvet riding coat that i will probably never get rid of because it's sooo pretty (and i spent almost $500 on it in an overpriced goth shop in toronto)

sometimes, a good coat can totally make an outfit, so i'm kinda jealous we don't have a season that really allows for that here :)

i have a columbia winter coat for when it is seriously cold, then a knee length black dress coat that is better suited for fall and early spring, then a heavier knee length dress coat that is a cherry red wool.

I wanted that coat the minute I saw it too. Kiyonna scares me for some reason. I guess I want to take the leap, but the prices make me leery.

When it comes to coats, I don't really care about trends, which drives my mom nuts. I have several, ranging from light to my heavy, long Berber coat. My dressy coat is my camel wool that is 3/4 length. But I love fleece coats. They're cozy and safe and make me feel good.

You know what - for the first time ever I decided to be somewhat trendy with my outerwear (instead of just grabbing the first thing that fits) and bought a beautiful fuschia peacoat by Guess from Nordstrom. It looks like a little baby doll dress with these huge buttons. At first I was worried I would look silly because I certainly don't look like the teeny tiny model in the picture wearing the -XXS. (I bought it in 3X) But you know what? I feel adorable in it and I get compliments everywhere I go!

I love coats; I probably have about 10 of them. I have a wool, 3/4 length coat for work and for cold days; a hip length jacket from Eddie Bauer in a small quilted pattern that I also wear to work, depending on the weather; a fleece jacket for casual fall days; two quilted vests for the not-quite-cold-just-cool days; and then a couple of casual, week end type jackets (water repellant, fleece lined). I love the coat from Kiyonna, the price is what's keeping me at bay. LB has a couple of cute coats too, I love the wool coat they have with a belt and 3/4 sleeves. If the price drops, I'll probably take the plunge.
