I really like them both, but since the first one is a bit more cutesy because of the polka dots and the second one is more chic, I'll pick the second one. I think it's adorable!
thanks, shopchicago! unfortunately they only have one left, and not in my size. i called a local store which luckily had it in stock, and they're holding on for me until closing tomorrow. i'm going in to try it on.
if you're interested in it for yourself, you might want to call some stores too -- it's sold out on every site i tried checking. (last night i googled the coat and designer name and couldn't find it anywhere.)
