Great find on this coat (seems like lots of other tiny petites no have it!) and it will look fantastic after the sleeves are shortened.

As with any white item of clothing though, I wouldn't expect it to last forever but I'm hoping that with some extra care, it'll last me a while!<br /><br /><b>Tara</b> - I do love winter white! Just have to be careful and not eat around the coat :P<br /><br /><b>littlenashua</b> - It's a little sad but sometimes it's cheaper just to buy (same with knitting sweaters... nice yarn is freakin' expensive. I wanted to make hubby a sweater but it would've cost $75+ for enough yarn eek). I agree that you'd definitely have to shorten the sleeves on this one.<br /><br /><b>Callandra</b> - I couldn't believe how small it was either! That's why I jumped the gun and blogged about it even before pics were taken :)<br /><br /><b>Nelah</b> - (Don't) call me an enabler but I think you'd look amazing in it! :P<br /><br /><b>curls-and-pearls</b> - I realize a white/ivory coat is probably not feasible for daily wear-and-tear, but I love it for when I want to look nice!<br /><br /><b>Elle</b> - Did I mention it also comes in black and tan? Juuuust saying.... ;)<br /><br /><b>hugstiem</b> - Yay! I'm so glad you were able to get yours! It's always great to know the links are helpful for others :) <br /><br /><b>Temi</b> - Thanks for reading!

The thing is, I almost bought a white peacoat from Ann Taylor Loft last year. It was GORGEOUS, fit wonderfully and was a good price--the only catch was that it collected lint like no other ! How is this one faring in terms of dust/lint collecting and just overall ability to stay clean and white ?Dominiquenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-49540592345513299692010-11-25T01:06:24.268-08:002010-11-25T01:06:24.268-08:00Oh wow it even hits at the right part on the waist...Oh wow it even hits at the right part on the waist!Jackienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626256958127756377.post-50269609985674949042010-11-24T23:58:08.536-08:002010-11-24T23:58:08.536-08:00PetiteLG - I'd never heard of Gliks either!

Glad I didn't buy off of Urban Outfitters, I'd be so mad at paying over twice the price (well, I'd just return it, but still :P)<br /><br /><b>Reeni</b> - Sounds like you got a great deal too! This coat seems to be available from a lot of places!<br /><br /><b>SewPetiteGal, The Little Dust Princess, Ping, kileen</b> - It's not exactly a practical color, but I do love it!<br /><br /><b>Michelle </b> - The sleeves are nearly 24.5"... quite long for such a slim fitting coat!<br /><br /><b>April</b> - Thank you! It's very very rare that I find something that fits this small (almost) without any alterations!<br /><br /><b>Alterations Needed</b> - That's true, you already have such nice Burberry coats! This will be my first long coat so I'm definitely excited :)<br /><br /><b>DoubleZero</b> - I'm by no means an expert at fabrics, but would go out on a limb and say more like wool. I don't have any fleece jackets that feels like this. Plus it's fully lined which is nice :)<br /><br /><b>Cee</b> - Yup it's an XS (and not even petite sizing!) I suppose in the pics the sleeves don't look too bad, but in real life I just can't do anything when I'm wearing the coat because they won't stay scrunched up (I did try!), so unfortunately I'm going to have to fork out for alterations.<br /><br /><b>MoneyMaus</b> - Yay I'm so glad it fits you too! I can't imagine how much harder it is for you guys to find clothes!<br /><br /><b>Megan</b> - Oh darn, I've never ordered from them before, just saw the offer on their website.

Plus the sleeves don't look extra long unless your arms are by your side... so I'd be tempted to wear them out before getting alterations ;)Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183749125846812753noreply@blogger.com
