I'm going to be going back to school in NYC next fall and would like a warm and glamorous coat. What do you think of this coat-does it look tasteful and not matronly or tacky? I don't want to stick out like a soar thumb(from my understanding and observations people still wear fur in nyc quite a bit)
...you're going to spend $4500 on a COAT? Sheesh. That would be the down payment on a pretty nice car, or better left in a CD account or something. Also, be careful- some people (PETA) have been known to throw paint on fur coats like that.
wow, what a beautiful coat! It kind of looks like a coat my mom has that cost her 1,000 back in the 80's!
Either way, I agree with Jordan..as I sit here trying to figure out how to pay for school (since I just got accepted to the UofA), I'm think your 4,500 dollars could go towards a year of rent for me while I attend school since my grants will cover enough to pay tuition but no living expenses.
Invest the money instead of spending it on a coat that could easily cause you to alienate many of your classmates.
And a whole lot of other people.
I had a fake fur coat that didn't look fake. (Fox, BTW.) It was a gorgeous coat but I got so tired of people's comments (total strangers - many of whom were pretty vocal) I quit wearing it.

NOBODY wears fur in Manhattan except a woman over 50, most over 60. I haven't seen any young women wearing long minks in years. Fur is considered very declasse.
Much too much coat for a young woman. In order to pull off a fur coat at your age it should be shorter and vintage.
