Love at first sight…the ladies’ tweed at the bottom of the page, with the navy velvet collar. Yum. But I will have to love it from afar…last week’s purchase of a new hunt horse prospect prevents me from acquiring such a lovely jacket!
Ixnay on tweed w/velvet on the collar for hunting. Plain collar is the way to go.
I’ve already got 5 coats and four vests from Alexander James. I love them.
They come to Rolex every year. I think this was the only year I didn’t buy something. Well, I’d bought a frock coat and vest from them in December. Getting your colors is very expensive.
Grrrrrrrr!
Equibrit is the devil and I hope she falls off!!!..:mad:
Credit card?!!! WHAT credit card!!???
Thank gawd I don’t know the exchange rate…that helps the pain some!
:winkgrin::winkgrin::winkgrin::winkgrin::winkgrin:
Doesn’t stop me from loving it…or wanting it!
And, absolutely, nothing wrong with having it!
It’s lovely- just sayin- tweeds in the hunt field don’t have velvet collars…
Sorry to hijack (thanks for the links Equibrit!), but has anybody ever seen a tweed coat with the seam at the waist? In other words cut more like a frock coat or what some people call “Olympic seam”?
If I get a larger than expected commission check later this fall, or some other unexpected windfall, there is very likely to be a rogue tweed, sporting some velvet, leaping over hunt country in Iowa
