Winter

This coat has been a long time coming (for those who follow me on twitter, you've likely seen my rantings!) as it was a pre-order item from Modcloth that got delayed, and finally ten weeks after ordering, it arrived! And I must say, it was worth the wait! I am in love.

And just in time, too - look at all of this snow! I find it amusing to look at different blogs & see how different the weather is. I felt like in summer we were pretty much all on par, but this past month has been so drastically different across the blogosphere. I see bare legs and peep toe shoes and light fall jackets, and here I'm already shivering and wondering how I'm going to survive when it gets 30 degrees colder than it already is!

Cold or not, it sure is pretty.










Coat: BB Dakota from Modcloth, Gloves: RW&Co, Boots: Winners

  9. Fabulous coat and so worth the wait I'd say. I'm pretty in love with my royal blue pea coat with a hood and gold, military-style buttons. Bright jeweled-colour coats for the winter definitely brighten up the day!

  20. Goodness me that is a gorgeous coat! Red looks dynamite on you, too.

    What really trips me out is seeing the blogs of people in the Southern Hemisphere, who are rocking late spring/early summer looks! (I can never get over how weird it is that we have opposite seasons, haha)
