Wearing a sweater coat indoors would be how I would get the most use out of my sweater coat (even though I don't own one yet). I rather fancy the look of the unbelted styles with voluminous sleeves and am thinking about adding an item like that to my shopping list. These are super thoughts Nicole.

Not so much for an outdoor jacket (though they will keep you warm in the early part of autumn), but more of an extra layer to keep warm indoors. I think it's more ideal than a structured jacket (like a blazer), because it's stretchy and gives as I move, it's machine washable, and the length hides alot of bumps and lumps. Three years ago, I bought a simple brown sweater coat to take on a trip to the West Coast. I like to pack as light as possible and specifically bought it for its ability to be worn in multiple scenarios. It was perfect for traveling on an airplane, worked like a bathrobe at my guest's home when I wasn't comfortable being seen in my jammies, and it kept me warm outside when the damp San Francisco chill took over the night. It was definately the most versatile item I brought, and it's still the one piece I grab for over and over again. It's my constant travel companion. Now that I think about it...I should buy a few more! I live in New England and I think sweater coats make alot of sense.
