Bundle up

It's September 28th and it's officially getting cold in Chicago. I woke up this morning and took the dogs for a walk with my wet hair and I realized it's getting too cold in the morning to walk around with a wet head. It's time to unpack the sweaters, clean my snow boots, and buy a new winter coat.

As much as I love to shop especially for fall/winter clothes I'm the kinda girl that'll wear a piece of clothing till it dies. My mom points out on a daily basis that I need to buy a new this or a new that because I'm starting to look homeless.

Example: I haven't bought a bra in 4 years. I find something I like and I take care of it and keep for as long as I can. When my mom found out that I'd been wearing a bra for 4 years (I WAS WASHING IT!!!) she insisted that we go shopping. So we went on a shopping spree and now I should be good for another 3-4 years.

Now she's demanding that I buy a new winter coat. It's been 4 years since I bought a coat and I have to admit they are looking a little dingy. I feel like Stacy and Clinton from What Not to Wear would shoot me if they saw me.

So I browsed Modcloth this weekend and I found 3 coats I kinda love. What do you think?

True Blue Coat - $132.99

 

Metroparks Coat in evergreen - $122.99

 

Go-Go Gadget Trench - $99.99

My favorite even though I know it's probably not warm :(

Looove the blue coat. But, I love that color.. definitely a 'blue' kind of girl. Coat shopping is so fun.. too bad winters aren't!
