...my new coat


The Hogle Zoo bought me a new coat today! After their mustard exploded all over my coat, they offered to replace it. My old coat was from the GAP, and I bought it last fall but it is no longer being sold. They really didn't have one to replace it in their entire store, either. (They have suit coats and jackets with 3/4 length sleeves which are adorable, but not as practical as I was looking for.) SOOO...I found this great one at Target! I love it and am actually GLAD my other one was ruined! It is a GREAT replacement, so I don't feel bad about throwing my other away.

Here I am in all my cheesy-ness to show you
the mustard explosion. This picture doesn't
show you the front of the coat, which was hit
the hardest. Mustard is so gross...

Thank you, Hogle Zoo!

Um...I also bought 2 pairs of shoes today! (A pair of Sketchers that are funky and interesting, and a darling pair of red Steve Maddens which I HAD to get after seeing them on my darling friend's feet. Mel...I promise I won't wear them when we hang out together. I honestly couldn't help myself.) I am done buying shoes for a while...I think.

  1. Wow, I can't believe they replaced your coat. That's great! (Not great about the explosion though... nasty.) Enjoy your granny chic-ness with those shoes! And I think we should make Christina buy them so we can really be matching for the next time we get our pictures taken together. ;)

  11. I like your new coat. But I'm practical and I'm thinking...'now she has two once she gets the mustard out of the other one'. I say try that new oxyclean spray cleaner in the laundry section. It's in the blue bottle.

    Love the red shoes.
