That coat is gorgeous - you have to get it!  If you can afford it, get both because the purse is beautiful too.  If you can only get one - get the coat.

Get the coat, it's gorgeous. You'll get a ton of use out of it.

My thoughts exactly.

P.S. Detroit, I think I have some 10% off Bluefly codes if you don't already have one.

The coat! Without even seeing it on you, I'm betting it will totally suit you. I am not overly fond of the bag but I think the coat really shows your signature style and you will wear it for years. If you can get both, then by all means, do so, but I think you could find a bag you like better, maybe...

i posted this coat off shopbop a while back- good to see its on bluefly. i think you should get the coat and post a review too. the bag- that color suede is really dangerous- it never stays clean, and you just posted a chain furla bag you have in green! so i say coat only.

You have to get that beautiful coat! I do like the bag, too, but not as much as the coat.

The bag is okay, but the coat is absolutely to-die-for... if you can afford both, get them both, but if you can only get one, def. make it the coat- there's something really special and different about the coat, whereas the bag, while nice, doesn't scream anything phenomenally special to me!

You MUST, in the name of whatever-saint-is-in-charge-of-shopping, BUY THAT COAT RIGHT NOW!!!!! 


I can't comment on the bag, as I am totally at the mercy of the coat.

OMG, that coat is to die for!  I remember seeing it on Shopbop and falling in love with it.  I think it suits your style plus you have the perfect frame for it.  GET IT!!!  I would get it myself but I think it looks better on a tall, slender figure...while I'm rather petite..so the coat would probably overwhelm me.

I got the coat!!! AND it was only $362.55 inc. shipping after I used one of the 10% off coupons I keep winning on that $1000 shopping spree sweepstakes...


and I didn't get the bag - thank you all for your voices of reason you are all right!


thanks for the offer though, zeitgeist! (by the way - that's one of my favorite art words "of the times" one of my design profs used to use it a lot and there's also a cool gallery/play house I go to in Detroit called Zeitgeist gallery www.zeitgeistdetroit.org - they do a lot of beat generation plays - Pinter, Burroughs, Beckett - love it)
