The Little Polar Bear

I have a not so secret secret. I’m a major coat addict and for the past few months I’ve been itching to find the perfect new addition to my wardrobe. I have most of my bases covered. Casual, smart, black, camel, hooded, leather. But after falling in love with my ASOS backpack (most people think it’s Whistles – score) I quickly realised I didn’t own a coat or jacket that I could colour co-ordinate it with.

After black Friday I couldn’t get the fuzzy number above out of my head. I’d spotted it in the sale and it taunted me for a few days prior to purchasing. Does it make me look like a sheep or the little polar bear? I can’t tell.

Before we go any further I’m just going to make it clear that this is the cosiest coat I own. No regrets what so ever. And had I known this I would have bought it earlier in the year and paid full price (luckily for my bank balance I didn’t). If you’re a fan of my vlogmas you’ll have seen me wearing this almost daily since I bought it. It can dress up something incredibly causal or add a little glamour to something that’s already a little bit special.

Did I just write three paragraphs about a coat? Yes, I did. It’s love, okay?

    Hmmm … I think it's lovely, I do, but what happens when it gets dirty? I usually throw my coats in the wash about once a month but looking at yours, I'm not sure you can do that with this one. I suspect it's dry clean only (but I could be wrong). That's the thing with winter coats … they get so dirty and yet, the majority of them are so hard to clean.
