So I took these pictures after work so I have more than my fair share of late-day shine. I picked up this coat from Old Navy.com. I love this coat. I love the weight of the buttons, the pattern they make across the bust, the shape... everything. I got this coat for under $50 (what a STEAL!). Bonus pics of my picture perfect challenge for Jagged Little Pill.

No wonder you love the coat - it is fab! So....are the buttons real or for show? How does it actually do up?

Suz -- yep they are working buttons -- that's why I'm so impressed. I can change the shape of the neckline based on how I choose to button the coat (high neck, v neck). Also the buttons on the epaulets are working buttons.

That coat is great for you. I think it will be a wonderful counter-point to the feminine flair you so skillfully inject into many of your outfits. Gorgeous colors all around. Love that you can play with the neckline.

Congratulations on a great buy. I love how you've styled it with the floral top. That motif has an art deco look to it, I feel. It reminds me of Clarice Cliff's work.

I am fascinated with the process of getting dressed every day -- to me this is more challenging than getting dressed for a big event because what I wear is dictated by my activities, work environment, and the weather. Living in a climate that guarantees four seasons (or at least two extremes) provides both challenges and inspiration.
