J Crew Majesty Peacoat

It looks like everyone took advantage of the 50% off Majesty Peacoat last week as it is now sold out. I have never needed more than one “Winter” Coat and the Italian Blazecoat has buttons that are hard to manage with cold fingers so I grabbed the Peacoat in Navy in a size 8.

The sleeves are about an inch-and-a-half too long so I will try to get to my tailor and have that fixed. I love the Cranberry lining. The size 8 fit well if just a touch snug under the arms. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to layer a sweater underneath but I’ve worn this a couple of times already (thanks Groundhog) with sweaters and haven’t been uncomfortable.

This coat is very warm. I had to go out of town for a party and it was really cold when I left so I kept my coat on. Not even 15 minutes into my drive I had to pull over and take it off. Normally I keep my Blazecoat on the entire time I’m out, even in my truck with the heater on.

I’m am certainly glad I joined the Majesty band-wagon. The Navy is the perfect color to go with almost everything casual I have.

I won’t even ask if you bought this but instead, what color did you buy?

      Pam – Probably the best deal ever as the CPW is going down almost daily with this silly Winter.

    The coat looks great on you! I actually don't have this coat, peacoats don't look right on me, but I got a navy Cocoon coat this year that serves the same purpose. I love navy, goes with so much.

      Cate – I would love to get the Cocoon coat but I know I'll wear this more. I'm sure it's really cozy with a scarf too!

      Gigi – Twins all around…Are you sure you weren't born on June 30? Or maybe I was born July 1?

    I bought the navy majesty last year and love it. It's my go to coat along with last years stadium duffle. Glad you were able to catch it on super sale!

      Injanuity – I'm glad I chose the Navy for my first one. Next time I'd like to find a bright bold color. At a great deal, of course!

      What time were you born? I was born around 2p on 7/1.

    Around 330p on 6/30 but I was late. I was supposed to be a Gemini, due on 6/18. I have none of those traits. I'm all Cancer but the twin thing does follow me from time-to-time.
