ugh. fur.

Finally decided on and purchased a warm winter coat for another winter in Minnesota. Nothing too terribly exciting, but it should get the job done, and at half the cost of the LL Bean coat I was eyeing. I just don’t and never will understand why they still put fur trim on hoods. Don’t they know everyone opts to remove those ugly things?
Or maybe I’m wrong. Is there a faction out there that loves fur trimmed hoods? Really?
Yuck.

what I want Wednesday

Today’s What I Want Wednesday comes from New York & Company’s Outerwear. Just look at that stunning blue, the dramatic collar. This is a coat that makes a statement, and I want it to speak for me!

Unfortunately, I live in Minnesota, and a pretty little coat like this just won’t help me survive our frozen tundra winters. Instead, I’ll most likely be bundled up in something unattractive and embarrassing.

I’d much rather live in sweaterdresses. I am in love with this one. Ooooh, that grey dress with this blue coat? Stunning (if I do say so myself).
