I have SUCH a weakness for long coats. I loves me some trench coats. Especially at thrift stores. I was at the Bettendorf Goodwill earlier tonight with my mom, as we are wont to do. And I made a beeline to the rack of coats they have just past the registers, on a whim. Found a half-price London Fog coat that didn't fit and was a bit shapeless to boot. Which was sad, because I love London Fog coats. They are awesome. So I kept looking and I found The Coat. I have a lot of those in the coat closet. It is black, and nicely fitted, and comes to mid/lower calf. It also has a very military style collar. I tried it on... and it looked awesome. I need to sew the buttons on tighter, but that isn't hard at all. So it came home with me. I am, however, not allowed to look at the coat rack at that Goodwill anymore; last time I found a Wilson's Leather trench coat that fit me perfectly and was in great shape for 20 bucks. ::laugh:: Thrift shopping has increased my number of awesome coats by rather a lot.

I also ended up with an awesome pair of knee high boots. Which I also have a weakness for. Obviously. :D Especially when they are lace-up knee high boots.
