Help, w/ this Coat

I love this coat and am thinking about ordering it. I completely see me
wearing this in mind, with jeans and boots. I have the whole outfit
down, except what kind of top to wear with this.
I just can't think of anything that would look good with this and was
wondering what some of you thought may be good to wear with this coat.
I really like it, but don't want to order it if I only have the botton
half covered, just not seeing anything in my mind about what to wear on top.
Thanks for the help, I love af because you are all so smart on these
kinds of things.

Awfully cute. I would go with a short–sleeve sweater in a color picked
up from the coat. Or a plain, fitted button–down shirt in one of the
coat's colors. A nice cotton/Lycra tee would also work. Is this the
kind of idea you're looking for?

I have a coat cut almost identically to this (but it's charcoal grey
pinstripes instead of tapestry and is more of a suit–jacket weight). I
sometimes wear it with a silk T underneath but it looks fantastic with a
lightweight silk mock–turtleneck. Totally polished.
Go for the coat. When I bought mine I wasn't sure how much I'd wear it, but
it's become a serious staple and, because it's a bit unusual, a fashion
trademark. I always get complements when I wear it.

That's just why I thought I should get it, and I know here in Florida
the stores don't have it, I've been checking. Because I live in NE of
Florida it can get down right cold in the winter too.
