I have been thinking about the Kenneth Cole Sateen Walking Coat shown here for a while now -- long enough that my size vanished from Nordstrom in all colors. When Inge posted hers, I was so disappointed that I'd missed it.

But our own Beth found one for me at her local Macy's and put it in the mail. How sweet! It fits well and the color is as described by Vix: a cooler, driftwood shade that is not the typical tan of trenches. The fabric has a beautiful luster and the lining is divine.

Thank you so much for doing that, Beth! SO was here this weekend and he also loved the coat. I will enjoy it even more for its connection to YLF friends.
