I learned my mistake last year. I haven't had a proper winter coat since my mom stopped buying them for me and after last year's winter, I learned that sometimes, you can be cute as a snow bunny.
So right at the top of my must-have list for this winter was a puffy coat. One of my best friends had the North Face option that I was looking at and always seemed so cozy. But when I saw this MK option at the Maxx, I knew I was in a lucky situation. Sure, it wasn't North Face nor was it black, but who doesn't like navy (my favorite color)?
I didn't know how I felt about the hood - especially with the fur. I wanted something simple. But my boyfriend, who spent his college years in Chicago, assured me that I would love it and be glad I went this route.
So I've learned - cover your butt. Don't worry about look like the Michelin man. Embrace the fur around your face. Enjoy your hood. Use those pockets.
I'm actually a little excited for winter...
Do you have items of clothing where you prefer comfort over cuteness?
