As you can see, the voluminousness of the body of the coat is rather awesome (as in, really big). Though that is nicely balanced by the narrow sleeves (which, strangely, are exactly the right length and size for my arms).
There's no way I would, on paper, wear a cape. But a swing coat - which this is to my eyes - I would wear.
True, it's not the coat that Gok Wan (or any other TV stylist) would have chosen for me me. But it's pretty special and keeps me cosy.

Oh my lord, that's one furry collar! Love the lining - very cheeky. i think it's a great coat - and I"m sure you'll be super super warm in it waiting for the bus!
A good winter coat can do so much to help a person out of the door when it's cold out.
I feel dashing in a good winter coat.
Looks absolutely gorgeous!!!
donnasoowho: yes I will be warm indeed, perhaps too warm when I am walking home though...
nigel: I don't feel dashing in my coat, but maybe that's a boy thing. I just feel a bit like a rich lady!
Pollyanna_H: thanks! yes it's definitely out of the ordinary.
I like to stride (I have long legs for a shorter man) and there's nothing like good footwear and a good long coat for a winning stride.
