@islandgrrl   I'm sure your esteem is intact and you'll be standing tall.  Recently we purchased an RV and have been going on adventures.  As a result, my wardrobe has taken a turn on the relaxed wild side.  I even wore shorts last time...what a sense of freedom to wear shorts and sleeveless shirts.  I've always championed women to be authentic and wear what is appropriate and right for themselves.  Well, I finally took my own advice....and my self esteem survivedSmiley Wink

I had a funny mid-life crisis in Banana Republic last week.  I went to try on a pair of summer-weight pants and grabbed two sizes for good measure.  One size was too small and the other was too big. Both made me look crazy -- unflattering in every way.  I am usually a pretty easy fit below the waist.  Those pants sent me fleeing from the store in search of my esteem! Cat LOL

I like the length but it looks it wrinkles in both the apricot color and the green.

LOVE the peach color.  I'm not sure it would really flatter my skin tone but I love it.

It is pretty ,but, for me ,I like   traditonal trench like  Burberry makes. I got  one DelOlio had on clearance, and every little thing on that coat ,has a purpose for being there

 

Even though I am small ,it doesn't overwhelm me, because it is scaled down
