What a great deal too! I'm with you on the 3/4 sleeves. I can't get used to it. I had a Lilli Ann coat that I had to sell because I just didn't like the 3/4 sleeves.

It looks like it is in perfect condition too. I can't believe you got it for only $60!!!! That is such a bargain!!

You both look fantastic! <br /><br />I love fall and winter, and it's a good thing I do, because the cold weather here always last for half a year or more in Canada. Though I do miss the ease of being able to just reach for a sundress, cute straw 40s or 50s hat and maybe a light cardigan, I don't dislike dressing (in vintage) for the winter at all. I always find that my separates come out in greater force during the cold months and love getting to spend more time with them again. <br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-29428087200194117992013-11-25T14:36:38.794+01:002013-11-25T14:36:38.794+01:00Your green coat is very lovely, what a treasure. :...Your green coat is very lovely, what a treasure. :)SANNEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973437247117000140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-86439936767590246452013-11-25T11:52:24.637+01:002013-11-25T11:52:24.637+01:00Love your coat!

I'm trying to expand my vintage winter wardrobe and now have two 1940s coats and two 1950s coats which should be enough to see me through the British winter. I prefer coats which are either belted or have a fit and flare/ princess style to them. Sylvain's jacket is really great too!<br /><br />The next conundrum for me is what to wear on my feet/ legs come winter time as I don't know how much longer I can wear my 15 denier stockings!Mid Century Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225923078795264979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-74265467287120987602013-11-25T01:33:05.687+01:002013-11-25T01:33:05.687+01:00That coat is super super amazing!!!

Last year I found my perfect vintage winter coat, but this year I've lost my second coat because of moths, so I need to buy a new one. And I always have problem with vintage appropriate winter shoes. It's hard to find vintage ones in good condition, and the modern ones are simply ugly - or have very high heel (or both). <br /><br />xoxo,<br />MonikaLejdihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07586609230099005237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203434263568099440.post-72972931907178880062013-11-24T22:45:25.766+01:002013-11-24T22:45:25.766+01:00Matching shoes, how awesome!
