Got Trenchcoat?

Oct 25, 2011 21:33

Need a last minute Halloween costume? A longcoat is your friend.

(I don't have one, but it's still a kind of nifty rundown on what characters wear longcoats and how to dress like them.)

You can seriously work a longcoat. ;-)

Sadly, my budget doesn't allow for one. Also, 90% of coats/jackets I try on don't fit at all across the shoulders even when they do fit everywhere else. :-P

Um thanks? I don't know that a bespoke anything would want to associate with the contents of my closet, though. XD

And the quote below is Spike from Buffy, which is probably why you don't know it;)

That would indeed be why. :-)

See, that's the problem with fandom. They influance what I want to wear. Do you know how badly I wanted a leather duster back in the day just so I could be all 'Beneath me." I'll show her. Six bloody feet beneath me. Hasn't got a death wish? Bitch won't need one.' with an accent and then turn my head all sexily.

Now it's been replaced with a brown one so I cn turn my head slightly to the side and go '...I don't understand.' XD Oh my cas, I miss you.

Love the icon, by the by. :D

Don't recognize the first quote at all, but that's fine. :-)

Thanks, I made it along with a bunch of other 'badass outerwear' icons and you are welcome to snag it if you like.

What, no love for Sherlock, article author? ;)

I am way to picky when I thrift shop. They never have the EXACT coat I want. :/

I suspect they were sticking to Sci-Fi and Fantasy examples, since that's the site's focus. The awesomeness of Sherlock's coat is our secret.

Ah, yes, I wasn't paying attention to the website's genre, the hotties in longcoats were to distracting! LOL But in that case, no Highlander love, article author? XD

(And you sure have a lot of badass longcoat icons! I approve. *G*)

I think with Highlander some people remember the swords and forget the coats. Either that or the person writing the article is from a more recent generation and does not know what they have missed.

I went on a bit of a spree a while back and made a bunch to go along with this one. ;-)
