It's not hard to convince myself of investing in more outerwear. While having a great winter coat is a necessity during a New York City winter, having eight of them is not. I try my best to invest wisely and when I do make a purchase, the trade-off rule is gain one, lose one. My local Salvation Army loves me. There are always exception to the rule though... Like when I stumbled across this lifetime investment and knew it had to be mine without any trade-offs!
Not one to veer too far from my usual go-to colors [as I'm sure you most of you can tell who visit me regularly], when I saw this maroon down-jacket from Lanvin I knew I had to call dibs! Besides it being Lanvin, I took the red wine shade as a challenge to get myself out of my usual blues, grays, and blacks. Obviously still had to incorporate those colors into my look but this new shade is the gradual progression of getting out of my winter hues rut... That's what I'm telling myself anyways. Filled with goose feathers and protected with a water repellent shell, this guy will be traveling with my all winter long... At least until I escape for some beach adventures.
