The collar is not as overwhelming in person, perhaps due to more motion and movement... I did rebuy this , but who knows - I might end up returning or selling it!maqsadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730937181583656807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7367176557755914189.post-66604207799065878832014-11-30T07:57:38.170-06:002014-11-30T07:57:38.170-06:00As another petite small framed person (not quite a...As another petite small framed person (not quite as small as you, though!), here's my two cents: I think it's the double breasted nature of the coat that overwhelms you. Although I think double breasted styles look amazing on the models (all at around 5'10 or taller), on me they look just way too big.Denée Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16702208333567752258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7367176557755914189.post-72876572877688310712014-11-25T10:54:41.651-06:002014-11-25T10:54:41.651-06:00Hi Hafiona!

As I said above, the mustard is really more of an ochre- so sad, really. Hope you love yours when you get it. At least the layering possibilities are infinite under the oversized and generous cut.maqsadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730937181583656807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7367176557755914189.post-59355129729661439672014-10-29T21:19:12.530-05:002014-10-29T21:19:12.530-05:00Hi Susan!

It's ochre, not mustard. And I had been quite curious abt the boyfriend coat too - but I do prefer the collar and cut of this coat, as I think it's more classic. maqsadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730937181583656807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7367176557755914189.post-87147219789296642582014-10-29T08:36:30.819-05:002014-10-29T08:36:30.819-05:00I actually like the coat -- maybe it just isn'...I actually like the coat -- maybe it just isn't for petite gals. I think in those bottom photos of you with the heels and the skinny jeans, the coat looks great and so do you. It is meant to be an oversized coat so maybe just not the right cut for petite ladies?? I ordered the Mustard color and am disappointed to hear it's not that vibrant IRL. I am 5'8 and a 10/12 so we'll see how it goes when it arrives. Thanks for the review, though. Very helpful.

I got the Melton boy friend coat in grey in size 0 and love the fit of that so I'm going pass on Thais style. The one in grey in size 00 looks pretty good on you though....Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09182153481928410355noreply@blogger.com
