Remember, he knows my obsession with JS, so he had sweetly ordered this jacket from her online collection. It's so beautiful. I love the neckline, it's different, but still very classy.
Well, when it came we were so excited. But lo-and-behold, it was a bit too small, the neckline was extremely uncomfortable, and unlike the picture, the entire bottom of the coat puffs out. I could twirl in the coat like it was a giant hoop skirt. Not me.
So we went shopping a few days before Christmas to a Macy's up near my Mom's house. We searched every store in the mall, and went back to my original choice. A Steve Madden pea coat that has a very similar design, in the right size, and it's classic!
It's perfect, thank you so much, hubby!
Check out that hot purple lining :)

I wanted to share with you some ornaments from Pottery Barn. My mom has fallen in love with this alloy metal that's covered in shiny silver. It really gives the ornament/item a neat look that ends up being very fancy. Do you like it?

Stopping by from SITS... don't you just hate it when you pine and pine for something, then get it, only to have to return it??? That is a pet peeve of mine. But it looks like you got exactly what you wanted in the end. Now I need to see you model that coat for us!
