*amber* said...

Soooooo tough. I love every color! But I think I would have to go with Kelly Green. It's a color I don't have much of, and it's bright and fun! It would look great with Missoni's black and white chevron patterns.

I am LOVING the charcoal grey! Looks so pretty and comfy!

Lauren said...

I tend to have black or red winter coats, so the white I think would lighten them up. These do look well made and beautifully cozy. Thanks for offering us this. It's hard to get excited about winter, but I'd be really happy wearing this!

Anne said...

You're right - that is a tough choice! I might have to go with taupe or one of the grays so I could wear it with everything. But rust and brick are so nice too!

kimbirdy said...

what a fun giveaway! man picking the color IS the hardest decision - truth. it's a toss-up between the dusty purple and taupe. both are beautiful, but i guess taupe would match more things, so taupe is my final decision {ah!}. :)
