A Story of Fur, Leather and Tweed Gorgeousness


So a winter coat has made its first appearance on the blog this season – winter is properly here now!

This beauty was an impulse buy from River Island – its 70s styling called to me from the other side of the shop floor, willing me to try it on. I was in heaven when it fitted like a dream in all its furry, tweedy gorgeousness, all the time marvelling at its deep pockets and caressing its snug leather sleeves. I gave Mr Summers that pleading look, the one that says “I can’t leave it here in the shop, I have to give it a home”… it worked like a dream and I got a reassuring nod in agreement. The romantic in me would sweep it off its feet, take it home with me and give it a loving home without further ado.

But no, I left it there and went home and bought it online. Free delivery, money off through a cashback website, didn’t have to lug it home in a carrier bag. Practical to the enth degree, me.

Hooray it’s the weekend – hope you all have a good one!
