Hallmark Channel recently premiered one of the latest original films for their annual block of holiday programming, Countdown to Christmas. Tom Everett Scott and Brooke Burns co-starred in “Christmas Connection”, a charming movie about how an unaccompanied minor brought the flight attendant (Burns) who looked after her and her single father (Scott) together for a Christmas they’ll never forget.
While I enjoyed watching the movie, I couldn’t keep my eyes off of regal winter coat that Sydney (Burns) wore throughout it; a belted wool coat in a gorgeous eggplant shade with an asymmetric zip closure that had exposed gold zipper detailing when you kept the neckline undone.
This coat is as chic as it is festive, and I couldn’t wait to track it down! She wore the Calvin Klein Wrap Walker Coat and, while I was happy to find it fairly quickly, I was disappointed to learn that the color she wore wasn’t available at any on-line retailer I came across.

However, when I saw it in grey, my memory was refreshed to the fact that I had also seen this coat in another movie called “Christmas Next Door”, which also premiered during Countdown to Christmas the night prior! Fiona Gubelmann, who stars in the movie as the cheery April, wore the grey version of this Calvin Klein coat, as you can see pictured above.
You can purchase the coat from LordandTaylor.com for $169.95 in Black or Grey.
Stay merry!
Did you happen to find the blue and white nordic sweater that Brooke Burns wears in Christmas Connection??? I really would love that sweater or a pattern to knit it! Thanks
Hi Beth, I’ve been looking for that for awhile! If I happen to stumble across it, I will definitely post it. Stay Merry! 🙂
