My posts have been a bit doom-and-gloom of late so I thought I'd try and even things up a bit with a little positive news.Wandering around Canary Wharf on Sunday and we came to the shops under 1 Canada Square and happened to look in the Window of Hobbs, there I saw the most fabulous black, velvet, full-length coat (ably modeled by the headless plastic mannequin to the left).
Didn't think it would fit, it did (beautifully), didn't think I could afford it, I can't ... but got it anyway!
Not wearing it until the Christmas party and treating it with a certain degree of reverence because it was expensive, and I do think it is something special and I want to be VERY careful about looking after it properly so I can have the same fabulous and perfect feeling I had, when I tried it on in the shop, time and time again. I'll try and get some pictures of myself modeling the coat a the rest of my Christmas outfit after the party tomorrow.
Oh. My. God.

Will you be able to bring yourself to take it off at the party?

Mmm that is nice. You need a treat every so often, at least thats how I justify it.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy. :o)

Caroline, no, I suspect I won't want to take the coat off! This is both because of a style thing and also as the party is being held in somewhere that may be a little cold (will explain more tomorrow).
ReplyDeleteChrissie: get to Hobbs ASAP then, they have them in stock on line :)
Sohpie: Hmmm, need to try that reasoning with my credit card!
