Stay tuned for lots more!
I loooove this coat from Kiyonna. It's unique but not so super trendy that it will be out of style by next winter. You can see the ruffle detail much better if you click through to the product page. It also comes in black but I really love the plaid. It's available in sizes 10/12 through 30/32 for $250. You can save $25 by using the code WARMWINTER and orders over $100 ship free.
Speaking of coats: what type do you prefer? Do you have more than one? I have a gray pea coat but I'm thinking I might need a second, cuter coat for when it's not crazy cold outside and I can handle some style over substance. I've only ever had one coat at a time so that's a different mindset for me.
My inbox and mailbox have been stuffed to the gills with coupons and sales fliers this week. I guess it's time to accept that this holiday shopping season is going to be even crazier than usual. This does work out very well if you need new clothes, though. Hey, coupons!

I guess it's time to start thinking about sweaters, boots and coats. To ease us into the long winter ahead, here are some of my picks for the new season.
Maxi down coat
Sometimes you need a super warm, puffy coat that covers your butt. That's just how life works. This super warm, puffy coat is available in black from Lane Bryant in sizes 14/16 - 26/28 for $190.
Gigi Boots
Unless I can find a pair I like more, I'm going to order these and see how they fit, if they're warm and comfy, etc. I will be snipping off those fluffy things if I keep them, though. It's a cute touch but not really my style. Available from Avenue in sizes 8 - 13 wide in black or brown, on sale for $35.
Belted wool-blend coat
There was a really cute green version of this coat that I wanted to showcase but I guess it sold out. A lot of people seem to be confused about the 3/4th sleeve coat. My answer to that is: long gloves! It's definitely a look and very vintage, in a way. I think it's adorable. The down coat from the beginning of this post is definitely for "It's freezing and I'll be outside for a while." This coat is "It's cold but I'm not playing in the snow or anything." Dressier. It's available in sizes 1 - 4X from Old Navy is on sale right now for $57.
Ros Hommerson: Trot
Have you ever thought to yourself "Self, I could really use a pair of red, suede, knee high boots!" but were unable to find them? Well, here ya go. They also come in black but, I mean... red suede. The best part is that they have an 18.5" shaft and come in medium. wide, and extra wide widths. They're $176 from Zappos, which always ships for free and has excellent customer service.
I'm still giddy and ecstatic from the election of our new president, Barack Obama. I was in Grant Park that night (Kate posted a couple of pics here) and I have to tell you, I've never witnessed anything like it. I may never be able to find the right words to describe how awed, proud and humbled I am. I feel so lucky that I was able to vote in this election and, in a very small way, be a part of history.
I promise to get back on topic with this little blog very soon. I just wanted to share a few words about the election.
Unless you've already voted and in that case, you're extra awesome. I haven't voted yet because I have these silly romantic ideas about voting on election day. I'm sure I'll pull the stars out of my eyes when I see the line outside my polling place tomorrow morning. But no matter what, I'm voting.
Our good friend OTM has told me all about the Election Protection hotline and if you have any issues before, while, or after voting, I'd encourage you to call them at 866-OUR-VOTE and they will help you. Put that number in your cell phone before you head out for the day and CALL THEM if you see/hear/witness any shenanigans! Do not let anyone take away your voice and your right to cast your ballot. GO VOTE.
