I have always....

Loved coats! Maybe it's because, as a Chicago gal born and raised, I have to have so many just to cover the never stable seasons in my beloved home town!

That being said, I loved the following post from garance dore....

Mama Shelter

For the record....

1. While I agree with one of her posts that there would be nothing wrong with shorting the coat, I'm glad she didn't. Long, it has a smooth, 60s, Jane Birkin kind of vibe.

2. I'm so jealous! I NEVER find great stuff like this in my mom's closet!

An amazing coat or what...

The line is Lia Lintern and the designer is Julia Lintern who is an ex-structural aerospace engineer. Looking a the precise design of this coat, I believe it! And the prices for what you are getting - excellent!

Do go over and check out her other offerings! (By the by, her site is beautifully designed as well!)

(A big shout out to Fashion Indie for the heads up on this great designer!)

Some things I'm lovin'

On sale over at Travesmith....



Women's Regular Black Twill Excursions Cape - on sale $34.00


Capes were quite hot this Fall and Winter season, but I still consider them something of a trend type item and I'm always cautious about buying those kinds of pieces for my wardrobe. But this one as a sharp modern, yet classic look that will serve well in your closet for many years to come!



Woman's Regular Sweater Dress - on sale $49.00


Come on, who can't use a classic sweater dress in their winter wardrobe?




Women's Plus Size One Button Three Quarter Ultrafleece Coat - on sale $94.00


I love the cut and the color of this coat! Pair with with the following scarf...



Women's Cashmere Wool Paisley Wrap Scarf - $89.00


and you've got a winter outerwear outfit to rock the house!

(Yes, yes I know - the scarf is not on sale - but come on ladies you're already getting the coat at a great price - live a little! ;-) )

I've got my eye on...

Poetry

When you order clothes on line as often as I do, it's inevitable that you windup on all matter of mailing list for "like minded" sellers. That's how I ended up with the Poetry Fall 2008 catalog.

They're a British mail-order company with a style I'd say on par with J Jill. I have to say I was not bowled over by their pants or skirts - but I think their sweaters, coats and accessories are worth making note of...















(Come on now, what are the Brits without a bit of velvet and tapestry - they just can't help themselves! ;-) )




I simply LOVE this coat!

And with US sizes ranging from 4 - 22 I say Poetry is worth a look!
