Did anyone find an inexpensive shabbos coat for a preteen? Maybe on Shein or Ali? Would really appreciate a link. Dd wants one and I don’t want to spend too much right now.

How much do you want to spend?
Zara

My sister bought one of these for her dd:

Thank you Amelia Bedilia! I definitely don’t want to spend the price of that Mayoral coat, though it’s beautiful. Less than fifty if possible. The Macy’s coats look very mature, dd is eleven. What do you think?

I personally don't think it's too mature but it depends on what you like and what's popular in your neighborhood.

I think what you mean is that the coats are not very trendy. They are called Princess coats because they are the kind of coats that the English princesses would wear or very conservative traditional people.

As others have said, they might not be the style in your neighborhood. I wore that kind of coat when I was about four years old so it is more like it is classic but old fashioned rather than mature which connotes something that an older person would wear. What I mean is that I could have worn the coat in the link and it would have looked the same so it depends on how you feel about classic and timeless and what other girls in her age group are wearing. No one would make fun of Princess Vharlotte in the coat 🤷‍♀️😂

I live in Boro Park but don’t go out much on Shabbos. Is this what girls this age are wearing?

I don't think it's very stylish.
