Getting back on track with the fashion post this week.  Anyone score any good deals?  Lee - please repost, with a pic your coat!  You had a great find.  Linda - we'll want pics....

I was looking for a cream colored Pea Coat.  Tried the thrift and consignment shops (missed a few) and found one at Goodwill, size 8 that was $12.99 but was too big.  So I passed it up.

Went to Penneys and they had 1, size small... fits perfect, even with a sweater under.  Regularly $200, on sale for $79.99.  I had 2 - $10 coupons - got it for $60 plus taxes.  I think I did well with it.  Its exactly what I was looking for.

AND - while I was there, I splurged and bought a pair of Ana Size 4 skinny stretch jeans...  wore them on my date last night and they went over very well...  I DO love the Ana clothes - they fit very nicely, I think. 

I'm going to keep looking at the consignment/thrift stores because I would like a gray one too. Not a high priority - but I like to keep my options open regarding coats!  (2 closets getting full...)

Next!!  - I'll try and post a pic later of the coat.  Penney's website wouldn't let me copy their pic.

I'd much rather see a picture of you in the coat!!

I don't ever remember seeing the brand Ana at our Penny's.  I'm going to have to check those out. 

I bought some Halogen dress pants at Nordstrom's a few weeks ago that fit great but I'm not crazy about the colors.  The Black looks a little dark gray and the Brown seems to have a touch of green in it and doesn't match anything I have.  The colors looked good in the store so I took them and had them hemmed and now I don't even want to wear them.  These weren't a good deal!!!!

I'll see if I can get a picture. 

I've got some pants in my closet too that are an odd green color - unless I have a white shirt - nothing will go!

I do like dark gray - I have a few pairs of them.  Black shirts/sweaters go well with them.  The brown/green would be tough.... white or cream color shirt...?

Going out tonight again - trying to decide what to wear!  Its going VERY well with my new beau...

The dark gray and navy that I bought are great colors.  I had to write on the tags of the black/gray what colors they were so I could tell them apart.  It is the brown that is driving me crazy.  I wear a lot of brown, gold, rust etc.

A goldish colored shirt would go well with the brown/green.  Gold goes with both colors - I guess it depends on the shade of the gold.... 

I realized yesterday I don't have a BROWN sweater.  I have some winter white pants I wore today and wore a winter white sweater... but I don't like to wear same color pants/shirts most of the time.  I guess I need to fix that - lol...

Ooo - I could use those here in Northern Michigan!

I saw younger girls this summer wear snow boots - that's just a bit too much for me!!

I agree...snow boots in summer is ridiculous!!  I won't even wear mine unless it's cold, dreary and drizzly...come on bad weather!! lol

 I found some boots at Clark's that I really like and I am VERY hard to fit (have bunions so my feet look very much like Daisy Duck's).  I just couldn't fork out the money for them but I found them online much cheaper.... still holding back but since I finally started losing again this week I may have to treat myself.

Gonna try to post a picture of the boots:
