No.

I like the colours and I may have worn something like that when I was younger but I just don't think it would suit me now.

Yes I would, it's fabulous.
Just because we're old doesn't mean we have to disappear!

If I were about a foot taller than I am, then yes.

I love the bright colours, nice and cheerful on a grey day.

Meant to add, don’t listen to your son on this, he’s not the one who will be wearing it. 😅

I would if you bought it for me 😂
I’d wear the blue shoes.

It’s not for me, as the patterned squares are quite large and the coat looks long, so it would swamp me.

If you like it, though, and can carry such a bold coat, then go for it. It certainly looks cheerful and definitely a change from the usual black, grey and dark browns.

I thought this looked lovely for a Spring coat but my very conservative son told me not to be ridiculous. I'm still tempted. Would you wear something so loud?
