So after all that coat talk yesterday? I have two new additions to show, thanks to the online sale gods being kind to me. The first is this gray beauty by Zimmermann that I allude to yesterday. I don't own anything quite this long (and granted, it looked much shorter on the model, but alas, I'm not 5'11"),  but I have to say, it does make you carry yourself a bit straighter and more upright. No slouching allowed, here! Plus, it has just that right amount of cinematic magic to it -- almost fitting for a leading lady, as she hops off to catch her train out of town, leaving some starry-eyed lover behind. 

OK, I digress.

The second coat? Is this rugged specimen from Coach. I've had a soft spot for pretty much all of Coach's outwear this season (remember this pinned beaut?), so when I saw this guy was heavily discounted, I took the plunge. And guys, I'm not kidding when I say, it doesn't matter how cold it is outside, I start to sweat when I have this one on. And something tells me I'm gonna need that extra perspiration come February.

Did you catch my sale round up yesterday? There's 27 other coats on sale that I'm just dying for at the moment, if only I had, oh, I don't know, 5 other closets to store them.
