I love mine as well!!! Even more than my Lady Day Coat! DH says the Colletta is an old lady coat though...not sure what about it makes him think that.

Whaaaa????! That's crappy.:wondering I'm going to ask my guy if he thinks its old lady..lol
(Does your guy like you in shorter coats maybe?)

I have the Carlin coat which is almost like the Coletta coat but it is from last year, and I prefer it hands down to my lady day. I think the lady day coat can look old ladyish, but I really only got it to wear with suits or dress clothes (which ends up being once or twice a year).

Yea I don't think so either, the lady day maybe, but not the Coletta.

Long time since I have been here... I went to the chevy chase store yesterday and got the black colletta for 119 after the discount... it was marked down for 169 also!! Soo excited! Chevron pleated shirts I got in every color also...

Thanks DC for the sizing info!
Wow Trinity that's a great deal! Did they have many sizes available? If my local stores don't have it maybe I can call the location you got yours at and do a charge send.

They had a lot of size 6 and 8s I believe!

Congrats on getting the coat DC! I wonder if the other colors are mark down so much as well... I wouldn't mind getting another one!

I need to stay away from that store i just bought an infinity cardigan , boyfriend sweater ,the crew-neck dream sweater with the buttons on the shoulder , 5 tanks and a blue button down shirt which I'm pretty sure I already have the same shirt from 2006 and a couple of other tops

How does the Coletta fit compared to the Lady Day Coat ? Is is as slim in the shoulders and across the chest ? I want to order one but i am not sure how its going to fit ...I have 6 J Crew Coats and they all fit different
TIA
