i couldn’t resist showing you this gorgeous coat of mine that a local consignment shop has up on ebay.  i adore it more than words, but alas it’s just too big for me.  but if you know any stunning size 12-14 ladies who need a coat to match their otherwise impeccable selves, this is that coat.  it’s burberry, it’s a beautiful pale oatmeal cashmere, and it’s the most wonderfully luxe thing i’ve ever worn.  it goes clear to the ankle (though it could certainly be taken up if you’re looking for a little less drama), and just fits and flatters like nothing i’ve ever seen.

i wish they’d taken a photo of it unbuttoned at the top, as it really shows off the asymmetrical collar and placket that makes this particularly special.

oh, it’s a beautiful, beautiful coat.  spread the word, won’t you? the auction ends this week, and i’ll just cry if this divine little number has to go back to living in my closet, getting no wear or use at all.  make them an offer…i have a feeling there’s a good bit of wiggle room in that price!

(incidentally, they have loads of other designer goodies up for grabs as well…it’s well worth a look.)
