My new red coat!

Guys, thank you so much for your sweet comments on my post below. You really do know how put a big old smile on my face. Now, I am so excited to show you my new coat!

It arrived in Woolies (M&S) a few weeks ago and since then I've been cooing over it and wishing it were mine. I kept feeling the fabric and touching the buttons but my wallet said 'No way, Missy.' Yesterday, I noticed there was only one left in my size and I went into panic mode. Happily, my sweet mother offered to spring for half as an early birthday present (my birthday being in October, haha) and now it is mine! Thank you Mama Mia!

It's far too warm for coats in Durban but when I see it hanging in my closet, it's like looking at a promise to myself that I will get to travel to chillier climates again one day. I wasn't able to get any proper shots of me wearing it but when the weather cools down, I'll be sure to take some. x

By the way, there are some really nice 3/4 sleeve black body suits in Woolies at the mo for R140. They're so hard to come by in SA so I thought I should tell ya:) Oh and if you haven't already and you live in SA, be sure to enter our Glossary Giveaway here!

NICE coat! RED! BUTOONS! I too have a warm wooley coat that never really gets much use in my Perth "winters", I guess your winters are similar on the other side of the Indian Ocean too hey? xo
