Fleurette long coat at Bergdorf Goodman.Tell CC, darlings: Which topper do you find most tantalizing?
Do you wear full length coats in the winter? Or do you prefer shorter jackets? Understandably, many women reserve long coats for more formal occasions. Go crazy once in a while though, darlings, and wear those lengthy lovelies for day!

Wow. There are some great coats in here. But without a doubt, the Naeem Khan is my favorite. What color!
Lanvin and Jean Paul Gaultier Couture created stunning long coats I am in love!!
I'm back!!! Lol
To be honest though, I have never been able to do the long coat. I think I am too short for it :S
But nothing looks better than a long sweeping coat on a statuesque dame!
Stunning, but I prefer the middle long coat. :-)
XoXo
wow, you picked out some great coats carrie! Love them!

I don't typically do long long coats, but it wouldn't take too much to convince me to wear the Byblos white one :)
Happy Friday!
Oh the drama!
really adore the Max Mara coat...

I prefer shorter jackets, hip-length coats, and 3/4 length coats myself. The thing with long coats is that on someone who's more petite, you'd probably have to chop off quite a bit from the hem for the desired length. :-)
Happy friday to you, CC!
You truly picked some amazing coats! I honestly have to say that I would prefer a jacket or a shorter coat with cropped sleeves..maybe ;)
Enjoy your weekend!!!!
Love most Loewe and Max Mara!Other one so sexy and other classy.I think long coat is very practical for cold winter.If i m in Finland winter time i prefer full lenght coat,just to keep myself warm:)

check out my new wishlist just posted on my blog!
XOXO, BECCA

The styling for Watanabe show is scary & fabulous at the same time...Lurvve it! Still drawn to all Japanese aesthetic somehow...I really could wear all Yohji for the rest of my life darling! Yup, I could!
Happy Friday CC~xo*
Remember that one Kate Hudson wore in her wedding? SO gorgeous!
Great selection!
haha it's true, long black coats, particularly trenches make you look goth! How can you wear a long coat if you're short without looking shorter?
Leah adores long coats too. I love the Kenzo and Missoni coats.
OMG i love some of these looks!
Gorgeous. I love long sweeping coats!! Especially with tall boots.

So I just noticed your new header. LOVE it!!! And I also love these coats... xoxo
long coats are great, I just pulled out mine because it's getting cold here at nights! hope you'll have a great weekend :)
I'm so happy you found such gorgeous long coats -- they're so practical. Not to mention cozy.

wow!
i love the different styles of coat!

I have a BEAUTIFUL long Audrey Hepburn trench coat that I found for $3.47 in an old-lady thrift shop! By far my best shopping experience ever!
BTdub I passed an award along to you from my blog, enjoy!

I usually prefer shorter coats in the winter, although some of these have really caught my eye. I particularly like the Jean Paul Gaultier one.
great picks!
Hmmm. For me my dear it must be the Lanvin and the Max Mara. A good long coat over a short(ish) skirt is a terrific look. A modest flash of leg warms a winter up nicely.
Bon fin de semaine and my very warmest double cheeked besous ...
I love the goth images OMG! sooo great, I can't help it... I wouldn't wear anything like that but I love seeing it...
love duh Jean Paul Gaultier & Chado Ralph Rucci...long coats on women...so sexy!
good weekend cc!
;)
Anna Sui and Chanel are positively yummy! :)
I scroll down and it 'ooh i love that one'...then 'ooooh i really love that one'....'oh my that one is gorgeous'...till I've covered most of these!
gorgeous! it's not very cold here so I do not have full length coats but love the look!
Wish I was tall enough to pull it off
Those things swallow me whole!!!
I am way too short for that. Only 3/4 coats work.
long coats ARE great. max mara anyone?
xAZD
Gorgeous coats dear CC, I'm completely in love with the Anna Sui red velvet especially.... amazing.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Ah, as I wrote in my last comment, LOVE blazers & coats, especially love long coats...these are STUNNING!!!
xx
i love the 3rd from last coat. It's divine. I dont normaly wear long coat since I'm quite short :(
Ohh these are absolutely fab. I found a great long black coat that I cannot wait to wear. I think it's such a hot statement, especially paired with boots.
Thanks for your great and lovely coat photos!
I have two long coats, dark blue and brown but I would like to have a pink long coat. Now I have only short pink coats.
xoxo
These are some really beautiful coats. Some of these are very stunning. I hope you had a great Friday. Take care. Enjoy the weekend.
if only LA would ever get chilly enough to enjoy a long coat
Wow, gorgeous coats. I had a floor length leather as a teenager. I wouldn't do the floor-trailing thing now. I didn't grow much and I don't know if I can pull it off at 5'1"! Still, MK does it and it does look fabulous.
Wow I love that Vivienne Westwood one its Fab
SO gorgeous
love these pieces, thanks for sharing
long coats are such a staple for fall
FLAWLESS, love the blog, keep it up!

I adore Giambattista Valli! Too impressive coat!
I had an amazing long velvet coat I sold on ebay - how stupid was I!!
I'm going to be head down for a week to write 12,000 words so I might post but probably won't comment due to my deadline.
Gorgeous choices of long coats!
Love this trend.
Awesome post :)
xx
hi carrie, amazing photos. I love the coat that is wearing the asian model: it has the perfect silhouette and colour etc.
xoxo zola
Byblos coat is the perfect, perfect one! But I don't think they're practical, especially that one. I'm afraid it'd get dirty far too soon!
CC I love your blog as usual. I come here for all my inspiration and love all the photos!!! I cant even point out which one i love best
lovely blog post and very timely :0)
stunning pieces... the brown leather coat is so sexy !! i love that color :P
As you said so, truly it's difficult to find and choose a nice long coat which fits for the person.
ps)Do you like Viveka Bergstrom's jewels?
xZY
I luv all type of coats and I luv the ones u picked!!!: ) xxx
I definitely need a long coat for winter!
have a happy day, xoxo
Vintage stores are often a good source-love the look.
