[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]THis is weird. Doesn't your daughter attend this campus and know what other kids wear and what her own style is and where they cross over?  Why would mom in DC be making this decision? [/quote]

Yes, but I assume most kids won’t be wearing them until after Xmas when it’s much harder to find stuff in stock.  Plus she is super supper busy and hates to shop so o thought I could send her some links to options online.  If left to her own devices she’ll grab something at target when she’s there buying cold medicine and it will not be sufficiently warm because it will be too cheap.  I think targets the only store she can get to easily.

She does everything for herself and is super independent.  I do so little for her that  I’d  like to try to help her out with the stuff she doesn’t care about, which includes stuff like winter coats.  It’s a two way street — she does all my tech support for me.

It’s funny people saying don’t get fancy, get north face.   I think of north face as fancy.

Honestly, i think you need to unclench OP.  There will be plenty of coats available online after xmas.  Plus, if she's somewhere really cold, they'll be wearing their very warm winter stuff by November 15.  If she's not somewhere really cold, she can live with something cheap. And if she ends up at target.... so what?  She'll be fine.  I went to college somewhere way colder than anywhere in continental US and I remember when it first started snowing in November of my first year, a bunch of us went out and bought boots and coats together. It was fun and bonding.  The coats were cheap but lasted a couple years and kept me plenty warm. These are learning experiences.  [/quote]
