I have learned my lesson from yesterday's freezing adventure. I guess this time of year you need to be more functional than fashionable. Good thing I have my wonderful thrifted coat that meets both halfway.
Here are some of my coats stats:
- Made of pure virgin wool
- Interior is pure satin-y goodness
- Has to weigh over 10 lbs
- Fits like a dream
- So so so warm
- Cost $10
I actually left it at the store to go home to think about buying it. $10 is a big investment! I'm glad I went back because I think I'll be getting some good wear out of it this winter! And of course Chaucee's cowl matched the coat perfectly! Later this week I'm going to hopefully have a photoshopping tutorial up on how to make your piece of junk camera appear to take nice pictures!

What a lovely winter coat! The red is such a nice pop of color, too. I can't believe you already have snow! Our trees are just shedding their leaves right now.

ReplyDeletei love your coat!! the colour is so pretty!! i have been searching thrift stores for a winter jacket but no luck yet :( hopefully soon though!!
ReplyDeleteLove these pictures! You look great! Like a true dark fairytale, like you should be hanging out with the Brothers Grimm :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you splurged on the coat, it's a fabulous color and looks so good on you!
ReplyDeleteI really like the look of your photos, they have a winter-y feel to them. Not bad at all!
I LOVE that coat!!! It would keep me quite warm as a California girl unaccustomed to these extreme winters in Northern Europe. Maybe not as cold as where you are though ;-)

I love this set of images. I mean, snow makes me miserable, but it looks like such a wonderland there! Also, that coat is gorgeous and a total steal. I love that it has a hood too!
