Your looks great, I agree. I think my problem with that project was that it was my first ever trench and I "settled" for the fabric colour that I never really loved as much as the colour I envisioned in my head. Still you are right, I feel more flattered in the new Robson coat so I will stick with that and enjoy the lessons learned :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
