Definitely not my taste.  Too ornate.


 

@Krimpette  Agree. Like the shape, but too much bling for me.

I love the first one but would probably never wear it.

With fashion, everything 'old' becomes 'new' again, eventually.

 

I think the long coat is timeless and if I bought it I would wear it for years, I'm not one to follow 'trends'.

 

I wear what I think is pretty and looks good on me!


Sure, hippies never die.

Re: Opinion on these two strikingly beautiful pieces.

They're both quite stunnng but would look out of place on me. Now, if I had that kind of lifestyle, I'd love it. You should get one though. I admire women who can pull that look off!

I am seriously thinking of getting the long coat as once this covid is over I have places to wear it.

I like the longer one. I wouldn't have anywhere to wear it.... but if I did...that's the one I'd choose.  It is a beautiful work of art!

DO it! It's stunning!

 

Back in the day Stevie Nicks was my fashion icon, I may get it too, for the future!

 

It would totally fit in with my personality/style!

LOVE them both.  

 

I have something similar (3/4 length) in teal.

I've always been attracted to embellished jackets - and have owned quite a few over the years.  There are still a couple of them in the closet that come out for special occasions.

Re: Opinion on these two strikingly beautiful pieces from Soft Surroundings.

@crawford5153   Definitely beautiful.  Maybe to be worn somewhere like a classy  but not too fancy dinnerhouse or lounge setting. Not something to be warn everyday.
