After I saw that red Kate Spade coat at the outlets it had me thinking about that cobalt coat from Banana Republic that I was head over heels in love with a month or so ago. Although it was still pricey, it was a fraction of the price of the Kate Spade one.
I rushed home from the outlets and immediately went to the Banana Republic website and was so happy to find out they were having a 40% off sale. It was meant to be! I went to go order it but their website wasn't working so I decided to call their customer service number (which by the way, is the BEST customer service ever. Every time I have called it, it has been nothing short of a really pleasant experience). They ended up sending me a 10% off coupon to use when the website started working again - in addition to the 40%! 50% off?! Yes please!
I ended up ordering 3 coats. My poor bank account. I am for sure returning two. I ordered the Cobalt Wool Coat in two different sizes and decided to try the Navy Double Breasted Coat as well.

They are still both about $180.00 but I figure that since I've had my black peacoat from H&M for five years now and it was only $70.00 at the time, that I can justify purchasing another coat as it will last me.
Here's to hoping they fit! Which do you prefer?
In other news, I watched the entire first season of Game of Thrones on the weekend and am so addicted. I finally gave it a chance after telling every person I know that I wouldn't like it and yikes, it is SO GOOD.
Your poor bank account! They're both really nice though. I hope they fit well when you receive them!
ReplyDeleteHope they fit, the Navy one is my favorite of the two!
ReplyDeleteThey're both so cute, it's hard to decide!! I think I'd choose the navy one, because it matches with pretty much everything. But then I'd probably regret it because I'd constantly be cleaning dog hair off of it (but that problem is pretty specific to me haha). Both are good choices!
ReplyDeleteOMG love them both! Gotta take advantage of a good sale! I love having a bright coat, personally, but on the rare occasion it completely doesn't match, it does kind of suck. I hope you love at least one of them in person!
ReplyDeleteAhh these coats are so beautiful! Makes me want to start browsing for a new one! :)
ReplyDeleteThere's a cobalt coat at J.Crew that I love but have been waiting for a good sale. I love the cobalt one you picked out!
ReplyDeleteThat cobalt coat is GORGEOUS! Post pics when it comes in - I can't wait to see it on.
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! And Banana has the best quality stuff, they should last you for a while!
ReplyDeleteThe cobalt coat is GORGEOUS!!! I am hearing that's the color to have for the fall/winter season!
