I am the Queen of Cheap. My mother is the Empress, but I still lay claim to a title. So no, I will not buy this lovely coat. I have also had to buy so many clothes over the last couple of years that it's getting ridiculous. So I have to keep prices down until the renewal process is over. Then I will consciously look for long-term investment clothes but not until. And I would still like to keep a fairly minimalist wardrobe. I like the European method - having a core wardrobe that is refreshed with a few items to keep it up to date.
I was quite overwhelmed to open a package and find two coats for the same season in it, although my stepmother thought I would wear the white one more in the spring. But it's still wool, and I don't like getting too hot... I bought another spring coat. LOL!
