Don’t forget to check your major dept stores at the end of the season. I found this one on sale at Saks last year. Originally retailed for $600 plus but I got it on clearance in my size for $250!

The rosette collar seems silly/trendy but it is lovely to burrow your nose into. The belt lets me expand in and out for layers. Plus the coat is 3/4 length on tiny me and not skyhigh model.

I don’t know if you have a Topshop in Montreal – they do some really nice winter coats at great prices.

Good luck with the search.

@AK Thanks for the reco on the Esprit coats but I really didn’t want a puffy coat..

Try Esprit. The puffy coats aren’t bulky but the 50%/%0% feather/down keeps it light and warm. None of the coats are over $199.50 CDN. And I believe they are also having a 30% off outwear sale right now — well the ones in Ontario are, not so sure about QC.

Swoon, I want a coat now. I actually saw my dream coat today, it was by Michael Kors, surprisingly $230 dollars. It had the huge collar, it was white, and 100% down-filled. Elegant, yet functional. .-= Investing Newbie´s last blog ..When Debt Strikes =-.

I love the pink one from J Crew. But the cream one is so beautiful and unique.... .-= Lawgirl´s last blog ..RBoC Television, Take Two =-.

Great post!!! I love these jackets. My favorite is the gray jacket with the asymmetrical line. How fab, but my second is the blue jacket what a beautiful color.

@Katie I will probably go for the Smart Set coat first, just to try it out. At least it isn’t black (my #1 rule)… Maybe I can pin brooches all over it.. LOL

@jc: You are making me want to buy this J. Crew jacket with Thinsulate. I am intrigued by this additional layer…
