Soft, Sexy, Glossy Patent Leather - Mmmm!There's something about leather, isn't there? What is it anyway? It's probably some sense of the forbidden or the biker chick image. Now combine that with a feminine cut jacket in a patent or other soft leather and stick a belt on it and voila - you really have identified something for a modern woman amongst the Women's Leather Winter Coats. Now that I've talked it up for leather, I don't have anything in leather I want to wear anymore. So on line we go.... I'm going to try Neiman Marcus first and bingo, right away I'm looking at some hot jackets by Bagatelle. The first is a Quilted Leather Jacket in red. With a banded collar; front zip, tie waist and side patch pockets. What do you think/ See what I meant earlier. It's got something hasn't it? Neiman's item# NMOF8_T174G. The price is $265 which I think is a fair one.
Here's one that's a cross between biker chick and matador's girl. It's still at Neiman and is a Brandon Thomas Ruched Leather Jacket, their item #NMOF8_T1A77 and priced at $350. There's more there if you want to check. Now here's something completely different. In a long coat, Andrew Marc Sheared Rabbit and Patent leather Coat. Actually, It' really good looking and somewhat reminiscent of a WW2 spy. But seriously, go take a look. I think you might be intrigued. It's Neiman's item # NMOF8_T173U and the price is $2495. Hop over to Nordstrom and take another look there. There's a nice look. A LNR Faux Shearling Wrap Coat in suede bonded to faux Toscana shearling. Loop-and-button closure. On-seam pockets with a soft-tie suede belt. Nordstrom's item # 209522 and priced at $348. last but definitely not least this Donna Karan coat at DKNY. It has a look to die for. Take a look yourself at this Leather Mercer Single Breasted Trench. DKNY's item# DY-14603L-Y7. The price? $550.00. Not bad at all. You know the more I look at DK's work the better I like it. Think I'll look around on this site some more. Actually, you know what I could wear it with that adorable little Cap Sleeve Tunic Dress which is their item # DY-P477572WA. Only $275.00. And those brogue platform Mary Jane's. Their # DY-K3701423 $325.00 I'll get the ribbed knit panty hose too while I'm about it. Know what? I really like Donna Karan's stuff. Suits me down to the ground. Anyway, I think I did good there so I'm happy. Well done, Fiona. You're cooking today! |
