Merry Christmas to Me!
So, at the holidays you’re generally supposed to over tip your housekeeper, gardener, babysitter, etc., right?
Well, it dawned on me that I could sure use a tip or a little extra something special this holiday season…
It gets pretty chilly here in the semi “high desert” Santa Clarita area. I have a nice black herringbone-type coat, a lime green trench coat, a short black trench, and a yellowish Spring trench…
I needed a festive red coat for the holidays!
Coats last for years so I justified the purchase that way. I am a total bargain shopper so I knew I wasn’t about to drop $200 on a cute red coat.
Then I spotted one at Ross for $24.99!!! Exactly what I was looking for and it even has a little extra pizzazz ~ some built in sparklies….perfect for the holidays! I LOVE IT!
Seriously? $24.99? That is like a “disposable coat” price if coats were disposable!
I know that I will get several good years out of it. Fortunately here in So Cal I may only wear it a handful of days (not rubbing it in!).
I am so happy with my new purchase! Isn’t is SO cute?
Can you see the little bits of “bling”? I LOVE IT!
I look forward to wearing it this weekend when we take a walk through Wakefield Wonderland ~ the super pimped out court in our area!
What have you treated yourself to this holiday season?
Hope it’s something nice because you deserve it! XOXO

Amy – I love the coat! Someday we will have to go shopping together. I am always amazed at the deals that you are able to find. I go into Ross or any of those discount stores and get really overwhelmed. Glad to see you are taking care of yourself this holiday season!

Amy! I love the red coat. I need to visit Ross more often. You must have been alone, though. I can’t imagine sifting through those racks with my two small boys in tow!
