The second one. I think that it's more practical.

^ Well, if it's something she's going to get a lot of use out of, I say why not?
I personally don't care for either of them, but I say go with the one that is most comfortable and practical for you. |

ehh those don't look that warm. if you really want smething that'll keep you warm, look for a jacket with down feathers. it's what keeps the goosies warm :)

If you're looking for warmth, longer coats are always warmer... Like a cute trenches, toggle coats or peacoats that go down to your knees or just above.

 in a matter of time Group: Staff Alumni Posts: 7,151 Joined: Aug 2005 Member No: 191,357 |
I don't know about you, but to me, $88 for a coat, ANY coat, is a reasonable price. Let alone a winter coat...Holy crap a $38 coat. I don't know if it's just me, but I would prefer to spend more money on a jacket you're going to get a lot of wears out of...
I would pick the first one, only because puffy jackets are 1) out and 2) you could look like the Michelin man in it. So only go for the second one if you are deathly skinny. Plus I like Jane's suggestion waaaaay better, but the style could be wrong for you. *shrug* |

The first one. Casual and comfortable. I don't really think I like the second's one material. I mean, I don't like the noise.
