Oh look! A new post! Needless to say I am back in the UK again and have no shortage of locations and so blogging is interesting again. One of the things I am on the search for this winter are coats in bright jewel colours. Being a newly acquired size 18, this is most difficult to find. It seems that it has been decreed that fatties above a certain size must only wear black and nothing else. ASOS, New Look and River island are my new sources of salvation, now that my old wardrobe is obsolete. I was thus overjoyed when I saw this cape at ASOS. It seemed perfect for me. This outfit is based on something I saw on someone while working at the library last week. I love the 40s feel and the combination of textures like wool, fur, leather and velvet. What do you think?
