Tuesday night, my friend Josh and I went on an H&M adventure. We were looking for a snazzy new coat for him. They were having a ridiculous sale – coats were 50% off and on top of that they were buy one get one free! Neither of us bought one. Or got one free. The bogo ended the next day. I went back on Thursday afternoon and begrudgingly bought this coat after a full hour of agonizing. And for the record, this image should have been color corrected because the stripes are barely even visible on the actual coat! It’s also a much darker color of gray. For the record.

I’m kind of obsessed with the way that the coat transforms my wardrobe. You can’t really tell from this strange photo (it looks very different in person?) but I’m pretty sure it’s a modified  “A-line swing coat” with a really great pleat detail in the back. But..um.. the more I type, the more worried I become. Did I make a mistake? Am I only imagining the stripes to be more faded and the shape of the coat to be more vintage??  Why am I blogging at 3am?

edit// wow, fixed the grammar on that image. 3am blogging is a hot mess.
