That pink coat

I was actually convinced THAT pink coat by Marks and Spencer didn't exist ( its ok, I don't believe men have been to the moon either)

Yes I had seen it in the ad.

But it never appeared in my local ( and very large) Marks and Spencer.

Daughter 2 thoughtfully texted last week to say it was online and I put it in my basket and then dithered - yet another coat was the last thing I needed , but would I regret it. I dithered so much I missed it.

Then a few evenings ago I was picking up my daughter and as M and S has conveniently started to stay open until 10  we went for a wander around.

And there it was - 2 of them. Well I slide over and touched it. I hate trying on in full public view in store - in case something doesn't fit. Then I took the plunge - oops first one was a size 22 on a 14 hanger. Hmmm! Then I tried on the other one - right size this time.

Satisfied I walked away - yes I walked away.
Why? Firstly its definitely not my colour - I thought it wasn't and it wasn't.
And it didn't make my heart sing - mostly because it wasn't my colour.

Would you have bought it anyway - just to have it?

Jeans and jeggings

I am sure at some time everyone has had a pair of jeans or jeggings. Last year I  discovered the latter by Marks and Spencer and I can't get out of then when the weather turns colder.
Last years are more comfortable than their counterparts this year for some reason - good old Marks , make something pretty perfect then change it for the worse.

Here's how I've worn them
