As expected in situations like this - my choice turned out to be NEITHER and BOTH! I ended up getting the peacoat style but in navy (and XS rather than S). I prefer the shrunken fit - and have been wearing my new coat a lot! Can't believe it costs less than $30!!!

In other non-surprising news - I keep getting sucked in by Garage clothing. When I picked up my red skinnies from this post - I found 2 more items that I "needed". First was this oversized & slouchy star sequin sweatshirt:
A perfect compromise for those days when you want to wear something soft and comforting but not completely slobby. I definitely plan on pairing this with my new red skinnies soon - the grey will tone down the brightness of the skinnies.

| My skull scarf collection: Coral scarf: Alexander McQueen, Black & White, Pink & Grey scarves: Garage |
My other great find was this large print skull scarf in pink & grey. Don't ask me why I keep accumulating skull scarves - I'm not sure myself. But skulls or not, with this color combination and softness - I'll always love this scarf!
Garage is definitely my weakness - which store can't you help buying from?
By the way - the winner of my CZ earring giveaway is:

Gorgeous! I love that navy peacoat, it looks very smart! I think the color change was a good decision :) I adore your little beenie too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Noelle - a winter hat that covers my ears is a winter must-have for me...if my ears get cold I'm miserable LOL!
DeleteI love that coral colour :)
ReplyDeleteThanks :-) I'm so glad I found the McQueen scarf in coral - it's so unique!
DeleteLove love the navy peacoat. I've been trying to find a cute and affordable one. I hope ON still has it.
ReplyDeleteOh yes - they still have it - and it's still on sale :-)
Deletelove your peacoat! You can never go wrong with that shade! So I went and got the last scarf my local garage had after your previous post. I hadn't been to Garage since high school :D Now I'm gonna go see if they have a pink one too
ReplyDeleteToo funny that you hadn't been there since High School LOL! I started going to Garage once its sister store Chado closed - I prefer Garage to Dynamite - not sure why but the clothes seem to be of better quality (I think all three stores I mentioned were owned by the same company before - not sure if they still are).
DeleteI love your new coat! Super cute! The scarf is great too. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks - the scarf is soooo soft - I love it!
DeleteThat star sweatshirt is so cute! I'm wearing a heart one on my blog today :)

DeleteI'm obsessed with skull scarves to, loving Zara's offerings. The Garage one is so pretty, not fair :( You look so beautiful with the winter hat on, love the whole look! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Parveen - I REALLY have to go into Zara next time I'm out shopping - I usually only have time for Garage and H&M - but I love all the gorgeous things you find at Zara - especially all the studded accessories!
DeleteGarage is my weakness too! I love that pink and grey skull scarf - I may have to get that one myself!
