Winter 2009 New Coats Burberry Belted Coats, North Face Jackets & Vests
Snooping around as is my wont, I spotted these brand new coats for the current winter (some even only in preview that you could hover to snap up just as soon as they hit the store.) I love to get the hot new items in any category and let's face it, on the whole, coats don't change much. They gotta be cosy and warm and weatherproof and at the same time look totally awesome. Men love snuggly girls in big hoodies that they can nuzzle in a snowstorm, but I digress! So all that said how about this Burberry? As I mentioned, some winter coats are in preview and this is one example. At Nordstrom's (great store) a Burberry Belted Coat. Details are sleek stand-collar coat topped with buttons at the epaulets and gunflaps, and cinched with a stretchy, logo-buckle belt at the waist. Front zip with snap closure. Drawstring hood folds inside collar with zip closure. Button-tab pockets. Belted cuffs. Approx. length from shoulder: 36". You will be able to get it in sapphire (for me) or black. Item # 264213 and the price is $695. You have to order it now and if you don't feel it's right when it comes in, you can cancel the order.
This one is really cosy and not expensive - a North Face (always good) "Osito" Fleece Jacket. Zip-front jacket in ultrasoft, furry fleece is cozy and casual. Wear it alone or zip it into a North Face shell for added insulation. Elastic cuffs. Zip pockets. Internal drawstring at hem. Approx. length from shoulder: 26". In black, orchid purple or pumice. Know what pumice is as a color? Well, I didn't so go look! It's Nordstrom Item # 251809 and priced at a budget conscious $99. OK macho girl! If you want to look gorgeous but rugged, this North Face "Aconcagua" Down Vest should fit your bill. Cozy quilt-stitched vest is designed to seal in warmth with a stand collar and drawstring hem. Front zip closure. Two front zip pockets; interior zip pocket at chest. Approx. Length from shoulder: 24". Polyester lining with down fill. Still at Nordstrom's, this is item # 222443 and priced at $99 as well. Nice going. Well there's a start to the winter. Not so bad after all!
