It depends on your body shape. I am very tall and lanky and it was AWFUL on me. It also runs a full size or more big. I do 0 for blazers and 0 or 00 for coats, and the 00 was too big. The gray is a really ugly color, which says a lot from me because I love almost anything gray. It is also very boxy and plain. I think in a color it would be cute on the right person, and the camel is interesting but a bad shade on me.

All that being said, there was a petite skinny older woman at my store trying on the camel one and it looked great on her. I think it is best suited for the older crowd or someone who has a really classic, plain style. I wanted to love it, but couldn't make it work.

ahhh, yes..I remember you saying you disliked the gray. I actually just had the chance to try it on. It does run a size too large. I do like it...I have many coats and I actually prefer boxy to fitted for some reason. Here it is on me in green...the color does not photograph well though. I think it's too bright for my wardrobe but I loved it. To be safe I may end up with black or beige.

Looks great! I love a colorful coat for winter. When I am waiting on the train platform or just walking around on a dreary winter day and every other person is in black pants, black coat, black bag, I love standing out in a bright coat. Mine is a poppy red from J. Crew a few years back and I adore it. Take a chance on the green!

Poppy red is great for a coat...my trendy mum wears a lot of red (she's dark, I'm blonde and wear pastels) and was looking for a red coat - but she bought a bright purple one last week.

Looks great on her..

Are you going to post pics of your red coat??

It looks great on you! I think you should get the green, it looks awesome. I think the Brit color helps it look less "old lady" and more modern. I felt like the neutrals looked like something you would get in the women's department of Dillard's.
