Out with the old... |
Yes, not only did I buy a new cardigan yesterday (70% off), I also bought a new coat. For the first time in forever I bought a new winter coat! Up to now I always wore the jackets/coats I was given as part of my uniform. And during the past four years I wore the very first one I got as a bus driver in Midnet Tours. That was in 1999!
... and in with the new! |
The coat is still looking good, but it's not up to par for Norwegian conditions. Plus I wanted a new coat. One that looks just a bit funkier than the one I use now. Finding one in the sales was brilliant. Shame it didn't come in a brighter colour like pink or orange or yellow, but it came with a great discount (40%). And I can always brighten it up with my pink scarf and my orange hat.
Very pretty coat ! Be happy that you couldn't find one in orange, everybody would have taken you for a street worker, lol !
ReplyDeleteExcellent choice. I love the new 'quilted' look of coats out now. I bought a similar styled new one in the fall. It is kinda of taupe colore or mocha and water residtant

It only said 30%, but the lady in the store said it was 40! Who am I to argue...
DeleteCrikey Mara ..... you're going to look super swish in that, aye?? I like that you can add whatever colour you like to brighten it up. Every time you wear it you can look as if it's a new coat.
ReplyDeleteI had better start knitting some bright funky scarves and hats...
DeleteYour new coat looks great. I love a good sale!
