A Trench in Florida?

It's funny how people think us Floridians don't need coats or sweaters down here in the winter but we do. So I took advantage of two sites that are already selling outerwear at clearance prices and came up with a winner. :D

And the first one obviously isn't it. :( It's what I thought was a trench made by Jessica London. I bought it and even read the reviews but thought it couldn't be that bad. WRONG! It was worse. The "trench" is actually made out of raincoat material and I mean like the kind you wear on a water ride at a theme park, only thicker. It's supposed to be feminine and girly with the "ruffles" but instead it's wrinkled and crunched up. Add to that the fact that you can't iron it and it's just a HOT MESS.

Now...for the winner! I got this purple cotton trench coat from Target for $19 + some change!!! And I LOVE it. :heart: I love the color because it's my favorite and the texture of the jacket is nice (100% cotton with). It's a little big but I may have it taken in. Then again, maybe not so I can layer.
