Hey everyone, welcome to my inner thoughts. Its messy, and indecisive.
I have this beautiful fabric: its been in the stash for ages, and I have quite forgotten what its made from. Its a slightly fluffy texture on the outside, faintly check in the pattern, a mix of blues and pinks. Very me. But it may be a wool, or a synthetic copy ..... its snuggly and soft. I know that much.

And my choices:
ETA - apologies everyone, I should have said. The three designs below are all Bootstrap Patterns.comfy: I like this one for the comfy, but not overhwelming collar, the knee length, and the slight emphasis on the waistline.
elegant: This one seems more "work friendly". The dotted line I think is a hidden placket, I like the two part sleeves, and those beautiful darts.
flashy: this has raglan sleeves, and I think would suit the softness of the fabric. Not keen on the two piece collar (laziness mind, not lack of skill), and I have nowhere near that trim a waist, but the flare of the skirt is appealing.
So lets hear some opinions. To give you an idea, I work in a school office, and its likely this coat would most be worn over work clothes on the way to work. I would love to know which design you think might suit me and the fabric.
