Gothing through the seasons

Love the first two!

Hmm. I can't see your first link, Firensia, but here are some things I've found just on one site. Pretty pricey site but if you see a style you like, pretty sure you can find it elsewhere for cheaper.

I LOVE the Vanity coat but unfortunately, a 3 button fastening is not going to cut it for a Canadian Autumn. I'd be an icicle from the torso down! I'm not a fan of fur (faux or otherwise) and the Minerva coat seems to have the same problem with the zip only going down to the waist. Thanks anyway for the links.

Ahh I see.

I actually have the Alcis coat I linked - Looks much better IRL and is made from a fleecy-hoodie kind of material. Quite warm, but not the best thing for shape due to the nature of the material - I usually have to wear a corset under it.

hmmm... I wasn't thinking about a Canadian Autumn when I posted those links. I was more thinking about a Zagreb or London Autumn. :huh:

Firensia, I don't think the jackets I've linked you will be warm enough. You can browse some more on their site, they have some warmer jackets/coats too.

I probably should start searching for a new winter coat too. I was thinking about black wool and at least knee-length if not floor-length. Nothing elaborate, just warm and that it does give you a bit of shape.

Up till now I was just wearing my floor-length leather coat, but I had to layer a lot and I don't feel like layering any more. hell, I'm lazy. My leather coat doesn't have any shape to it becasue (a) the leather has stretched itself a bit with wear and (b) I lost weight, so I look like I'm walking in a big black potato bag.

Yes, perhaps you're right. I had a look at the other ones but I still like the ruffle coat. It might be alright for wearing in September or May when the weather isn't so horrible or just for use as a sort of frock coat just to dress things up a bit. I'll still keep looking for the floor length coat I'm after though. Thanks for your help.
