TWO WAYS TO STYLE AN OVERSIZED COAT (SPLIT AND MOSTAR)

Today I finally managed to get to my computer and transfer all outfit photographs here, so this other set of photographs should be of better quality. Right now I'm really happy about finding the perfect oversized coat for me. When it first arrived, I thought that maybe I should have ordered a size smaller (that is L instead of XL) but now I'm happy I ordered this size because now I feel like this is it. This is the oversize coat I wanted. What do you think about this cut? Do you have an oversized coat? Do you plan to buy one? I wanted to get one forever, but if I wasn't sure will it work with my curvy figure. Well, sometimes we've got to break the rules. If we don't  gamble, we can never really have fun with fashion. Life is too short to wear boring clothes. 


Danas sam se konačno dočepala svog računala i prebaciti fotografije, pa bi ovaj drugi dio fotografija trebao biti bolje kvalitete. Trenutno sam jako sretna što sam uspjela pronaći odgovarajući kaput širokog kroja za mene. Kada je tek stigao, mislila sam se jesam li možda trebala naručiti manju veličinu (to jest L umjesto XL) ali sada sam sretna što sam naručila ovu veličinu jer mi se čini da je to kako treba biti i da je ovo taj kaput širokog kroja koji sam tražila. Sviđa li se vama ovaj kroj? Imate li takav kaput? Planirate li kupiti takav kaput? Ja sam ga već dugo htjela nabaviti, ali nisam bila sigurna kako će mi stajati s obzirom na obliju figuru. Nekad se isplati malo kršiti pravila i probati nešto drukčije. Moramo se malo kockati, inače se nikada i nećemo zabaviti s modom. Život je prekratak za dosadnu odjeću.

  8. This coat is definitely the right size, it looks perfect. The fabric is also great, it can be combined with so many other garments, good choice! Have a great Friday :-)!

  9. I think you got the perfect size for an oversized coat, Ivana! I can't wear oversized anything due to my height because I usually end up looking like I'm drowning in the fabric. But you have the perfect height for this gorgeous coat!

  10. Great coat! Oversized is especially good for cold weather because you can fold them around almost like a little blanket. And I like the roominess because they coat seems warmer with the air space inside, if that makes sense!
    Great photos, especially just as the sun is going down - I love the light.

    1. I like your scientific explanation and I'm sure you're right...as I have a very low tolerance to cold, I'm very happy to hear I'll be all warm and cozy in this oversize coat.

  18. Love the coat (and the boots, they're super cute)! I'm looking for an oversized coat as well, although I just won't have too many chances to wear it in LA. Love your outfits though :)

  23. Što veće to bolje... znaš da je to must kod mene :) Mogla si uzeti i xxl šta se mene tiče :) Kaput je odličan... osobno bih voljela da je malo duži, ali ako si ti sretna i ja sam... krasan je uzorak i izgleda mi fino toplo, a opet ne previše, baš za ovo vrijeme (dobro, ne baš ovo, ali onako kako bi trebalo biti u studenome)! :) U svakom slučaju, odlična akvizicija!

    1. da, znam da voliš te odjevne komade za koji broj veće...Da, mislim da bi bio bolji da je duži, ali i ovako je zanimljiv, barem ja nisam imala neki slični.

  28. Savršen je! Klasičan komad odeće ali nimalo dosadan. Baš je prava stvar :) Odlično se slaže sa tom haljinicom :) Ja imam jedan sličan ali je užeg kroja i malo duži. Što se tiče oversized kaputa, u te srhe koristim zapravo kaput mog muža koji je njemu tesan a meni baš dođe taman kada želim nešto šire :)

  29. Mislim da je bas i tako mocan upravo jer je oversized :) Svidja mi se i ostatak kombinacija, sve je jako dobro uklopljeno.

    Voljela bih da mogu reći da i meni stoje oversize kaputi ovako divno kao tebi, ali lagala bih. Imam jedan, obukla sam ga možda dva puta, ali to jednostavno nije to, ne stoji mi, ne osjećam se dobro u njemu i to je nažalost po njega bio kraj priče.

    1. znam na što misliš i ja ne bi nosila nešto u čemu se ne osjećam kako treba pa koliko god to bilo moderno, srećom u ovom se tako dobro osjećam, pa me i nije briga kako mi stoji, mada mislim da moj tip građe baš i nije za ovaj kroj i da mi puno bolje stoje strukirani... ali sve ovisi od kombinacije. Nekako sam ga uklopila u garderobu i drago mi je što je tako.

  35. Odličan je i super ti stoji, apsolutno si pogodila veličinu! :) Ja isto imam jedan karirani, baš sam ga danas nosila, ali nekako se više u njemu ne osjećam onako fantastično kao prošlu zimu, sad su mi draže strukirane varijante - nikad zadovoljna haha :D

    1. hvala, pa bolje je malo mijenjati da nije dosadno, ja sam dosada birala strukirane pa mi je sada ovo zanimljivo.
