We have a winner

Last week on eBay, I came by this great great great sixties coat, and guess what. I won the auction! With a total of twenty-two bids, the price of this coat got pretty high (not for the coat, but just for me, as I don’t have that much to spend), but I’m so extremely glad I’ll be the one wearing it in a small amount of time!

Since about half a year I was searching for a big avant-garde vintage coat, and now I found the perfect one, there was no way someone else was going to get it. Sixties mod, military-style, avant-gardistic sleeves, a cape, heavy wool, excellent condition, fully lined with salmon pink satin and a great beige color in one. Perfect!

    You always manage to find the cutest outerwear, sigh.

    I’m terrible with finding good clothing items on eBay.
