A luxurious Saturday Yahoo!

We're still writing, but wanted to put this out for thought?  Nice?

  • Long, full, sweeping style
  • Flattering A-line shape
  • Inverted back pleat                         

This full, sweeping coat makes a timely fashion statement in trend-right black wool. The A-line shape with an inverted back pleat creates a flattering silhouette. Roomy raglan sleeves with turn-back cuffs add to the comfortable fit. Details include welt pockets and shoulder pads for shape. 53" long. Acrylic/wool/polyester. Dry clean only. Imported from Italy.

Pam ... Pam ... Save me from myself!  SOS!!!

         

Ok ok ... bring credit card down stairs.  I'm done shopping now, I really am.  Damn if it isn't fun though!

Pam ... we hear you ... we've spent this last hour shopping FOR you.  Umm, results very mixed.  I was looking at what is called, "Swing Coats," like mine.  Think its meant for older woman to twirl :)  This is what we found in your size.  :)  Budget? 

       

$1,000 for first coat ... $475 for second coat ... and $12 for last ... Think we could help you in cost ... you like pink?  LOVE YOU!!

Ahh, Pam my dear ... we continue to share same tastes!  The store is on-line Silhouettes.  The cost is sale priced $200.  Reasonable I'd say ... And, the kicker is that this is sold in our big girl sizes.  :)  Let me see here...  Nope, nope ... there is a twist here.  Only for us woman over size 14 :)  You my dear don't have to hide an ample figure!  *giggle*  Next time ...

Pam ... Pam ... you need to leave size up to us big guys ... We ever tell you the size of us??  We're like 3 times your weight!  Not proud of it, but am learning to live with it.  Hehe trying too hard not to tease ... just happy to find something that maybe I could button!  This is a very very good shopping trip ... Not satisfied with the shoes, but I can't wear heals.  Eh, much improved over my regular tennis shoes.  Sister Tess is going to pass out!  Love the "Swept away by the opera look!"  Join us for a late night cocktail!

you've got some mighty fine taste in clothing woman !!  in my attempt to age gracefully and in comfort, i'm shying away from the tight (read unable to button) clothing too
i remember my doc used to ask me if i was happy with my weight .. i always replied that of course i was .. cause my clothes fit
i now have a closet and dresser full of clothes that i can't even get over my thighs .. i keep swearing i'm going to do something about it when i come into some money .. lol
in the meantime .. i have one pair of pants that i can still squeeze into and they're beginning to look a little ragged ..
and you speak of the swept away look? i'm working on my poor homeless mother look lol

Yep yep ... Can see you and that broadening 20 pounds spreading out nicely in these Swing Styles. Shopping for you though turned out to be more difficult AND expensive than we'd first thought.  Maybe you could just get an XL and have cut down?  :)

first .. yes .. we should allow mr vincent to "get away with it" .. more men should take the no comment approach .. i happen to like it lol

why don't we just get an XL and i'll grow into it? hehe

i love the 1st coat the best .. $1,000 is rather steep .. but i'd have to have the boots too eh !! and i love the 2nd coat, but i'd prefer the dog .. i can afford the pink coat and it IS the cutest don't ya think?!?  do they have that one in purple by chance? thats my favoritist of colors :)
