Winter is coming and I need a coat or jacket but with limited funds what to get? I have been going out more in the summer but now it's Fall and get to cool to go with out one. What color and style? Girls I need some help here. When the GF left she took all of hers and I didn't think about till now.
I want it to be useful as much as I can till I can get more. Maybe something that could be dress up for going clubing and dress down for the movies.
Any suggestions please?

I'd get a wool coat with a detachable collar. That way you get two looks. :)

I like a swing coat that is just a little longer than the length of your dress.

I was in our Good Will store the other day, and they had lots of coats @ $10 each. For those prices, you could get a couple. One that was cute, but too small for me, still had the tags on it. So they are out there....BJ

For functionality, go with a leather tailored coat. I have one in black, and one in brown. When I say tailored, I mean they look like a "suit coat" with lapels, etc, but are belted, and come in knee length as well as finger tip length.

Before you say "too expensive"! Check your local thrift stores. Just make sure you have it dry cleaned before wearing it. :eek:

You can't go wrong with a black wool peacoat. Always stylish, can be dressed up or down, and you shouldn't have a problem finding one on sale somewhere. If there's a Burlington Coat Factory near you, I'd try there first. I bought a Guess? one there last winter for about $50 (marked down from $200).
