Navy and Red = A winter coat

I think we all remember this delightful coat !

It is the one which Zooey Deschanel wore in the film Yes Man.

I think that I found out that this coat was a vintage coat which was pimped up a little for the film.

I was shopping in Manchester the other day and popped into Urban Outfitters on the off chance I may see something pretty.

Guess what !

I did ... and this is it... (photos from the website)

I was giddy when I saw this. Not only did it make me think "Yes man" excuse the pun but I am a huge fan of navy and blue !

I also like the fact it does not button all the way to the bottom. Being a little shortie this is a huge benefit for me. Im not sure about you , but i find if long coats have buttons to the bottom well ill be honest it drowns me !

The Peter Pan collar - need i say more !

At £155 it may be a little expensive, but for a winter coat I dont see that as too bad. Seen as it is made of wool mostly, I think thats quite good. Most coats on the highstreet dont always have much wool in them. In England I think thats a must, it does get cold.

Edit: It is made with mostly recycled wool !

The only thing is im not very good with wearing coats, i try to avoid them. But im very much in love with this one.

Why I think I may buy this coat :

1- Peter Pan collar

2- Red Trim

3- Navy blue and Red are quite fantastic together

4- Winter is approaching

Why I may not buy this coat:

My dads response - It reminds me of someone who works in a hotel, you know - a bell boy.

Is everyone going to end up with it - I doubt i would want it if it became very samey !
