This is my bog coat. It's made from a taupey brown fleece with black crushed velvet trim. The pockets are huge!!! I always carry black stretchy gloves in my pockets. And that's my favorite purse in the entire world. I'm on my second one (Walmart, $12.00). The strap is extra long (which is not my favorite feature) but it has a place for my coin purse/wallet, phone (Samsung Infuse), glass case, manicure set, extra phone battery, little journal, and lots of gift cards and pens, plus my Burt's Bees' lip balm. Oh, I carry my keys on a carbiner and to dress it up I have a peacock purse bling from Icing. Not pictured, is a gold magic scarf. I love my magic scarf. Of course, it does a number of convertibles - but my favorite way to wear it is as a hood/cape combo. It really does keep off the light rain.
I'm beginning to rethink my wardrobe - hopefully to pare it down even more. One item that I need to rethink is another jacket. As the weather is becoming consistently warmer, my fleece coat is a bit too warm and cumbersome. I have a white denim jacket that I've worn throughout the winter as an accessory jacket, but I think I'll leave as my spring jacket.
So far, this journey hasn't been too arduous or too boring. As I mentioned in the previous paragraph, I'm thinking of paring my wardrobe even further. I've decided I have WAAAYYY too much coral in my wardrobe even though it's one of my favorite colors. I just have a difficult time wearing it with black (too Halloweeny, which is not my favorite holiday other than a chance to dress up). Also, I haven't committed to getting rid of my box of clothes that has been sitting in my closet for over a year. I snitch out a few pieces here and there (I call them cheater pieces).
Thank you for coming with me on my journey. I'll keep posting and hopefully have a few longer posts in the near future.
