Just One Coat

A little background about me: I am a SAHM mom of 2 infants, 31yrs, 5'
2" 102 pounds. Everyone calls me tiny. I am definitely a Petite.

I live in Central TX so it is cold only 4 months (Dec - March). I want
a coat that I can wear everywhere; just one, since its not that cold
here. If I was to buy just one what do you suggest?
Thanks in Advance.


If I could choose only one coat for a young Mom, this would be my favorite: Machine Wash

I asked some experienced Petite advisors from warmer climates, and they added:

Ili: I love this coat. Buttons (I have it in navy). I get compliments every time I wear it and it works fantastically here in Arizona.

It's a 'wear it and go', easy, comfy yet chic. Here's another I would love for this year. The cut is sublime, and the
classic shape should make it wearable for more than one season. Classic

Halfpint:I have a coat similar to the first one Ili posted. It's lightweight black brocade with three big buttons and had the same seaming and shape as Ili's. It's fine for 98% of the weather here in Atlanta, which is probably similar to the weather in central Texas. I actually wore it today to work and received several compliments.
