Winter Coat

My whole life, I've wanted a big fluffy coat.  The kind beautiful women wear in Winter.

A few weeks ago, some of you encouraged me to get one.  Thank you for that support.  So I started looking, in retail-stores for ideas and in thrift-stores for bargains.  Last week I snagged this gorgeous white fluff-ball for $9 at Savers.  It's spotless and like-new.

Putting it on, I want to dance.  To twirl and move with the waves of the Universe.  It makes me feel so... girly.  What do you think?

    You are so kind with your comments. I just look for a lot of ideas from other bloggers and magazine photos etc...

    Yes! That is fan-freaking-tastic. I think it's gorgeous. Every lady needs a luxe coat that makes her feel glamorous. Major score, Ally.

    I think you need a fashion ring to wear over your fingers in your gloves. (Hope that makes sense) You look great in the coat. I love fluffy coats even though I am a fluffy woman.

    What a find! I love big, fluffy coats. I snagged a leopard one for $3 that's freaking FANTASTIC. And warm. And cute. Glad that you found one at a reasonable price!

    It just screams Ally ... love it and love it on you. Glad you found what you were looking for - I'm on the hunt for the perfect pair of black courts - now it should be easy to find by all accounts, but you think I've found them yet - my current pair is heading to the bin they're so worn out.

    I saw you made a comment on Wendy's blog about the word 'courts' ... in her response she spoke about other words in 'our South African English' but didn't tell you waht she had spoken about ... seeing her comment here I see what you were referring to ... courts are pumps.
