Having only just returned from holiday last week, I'm loathe to start thinking about Winter Wishlist items. I have a confession to make - I'm still wearing dresses and bare legs complete with goosebumps, please don't let me cover up the tan just yet!
I haven't even trawled through the winter collections on my favourite websites as yet, however there is one thing I know that I want and whether that is bought early on, or goes on the January sales list, I'm not really sure, but it's a grey coat. I know we are supposed to be buying our coats in August but sorry I just can't get my head around that right no. No I need a bit more time to peruse what's around and get the shade of grey right. I will know it when I see it. Or try it.
It does of course have to flatter the apple shape without swamping my 5ft 2 1/2 inch frame, doesn't look like it's gonna be an easy ask and knowing me with my impulsive shopping tendencies I will no doubt buy exactly what I like even if not the most flattering piece of outerwear out there!
Yes I'm feeling a grey coat, it's a definite "wish" and not "need" item and I'm going to wear it over a completely black outfit. I see it in my head already and by the time you get to read this I shall be off to Pinterest to gather images of gorgeous looking creatures half my age looking ultra chic in my imagined ensemble.
See I kept my promise! Don't they all look lovely?
I will of course add a nice little collage of what I think are the best around at the moment, do let me know which is your favourite!
