Lust of the Week: Fred Flare Emerald Ruffle Trim Coat


There is just something so superbly cool about a unique winter coat. All too often we relegate ourselves to drab, boring, shades typical of winter. You know what I'm talking about, you monotonous slaves to black/grey/brown! I counted myself among the offenders, but am now actively trying to pursue color! Case in point: this gorgeous emerald wool coat. Nothing makes my heart quiver in winter more than a chic wool coat, and this one is definitely chic and spicy with its shiny buttons and cheeky ruffle trim. Throw in a retro tweed-ish pattern and punchy green color and you are set to blow the socks off the boring brigade!

This jacket is fab! My co-worker wears this green tweed coat and it's a stunning color against all the grays and blacks. I second your "lust", girl!

Gorgeous colour. It'll definitely pop! among the usual dark and monochromatic colours of fall and winter. And it's at a super good price too!

lol yeah I know, going to UO while on a shopping ban, not such a bright idea! but I made it out alive and purchase-free! I'm trying this method where I force myself to go into my fav shops and then force myself NOT to buy to see if I can build up some sort of immunity to the temptation to shop. Crazy? Probably!

I LOVE the colour of that emerald wool coat, it's gorgeous! and I am totally a culprit to the monochromatic colours, I can't help but love all my clothes in black. But once I'm off this ridiculous ban, I am looking to find a nice royal purple coat for the winter and perhaps even the spring time since it'll still be winter then.

thanks for the support dear! appreciate it :)
