If I could, I would give you the biggest thank you hug!!!<br /><br />Definitely, I was already planning just such a follow up post, and will be sure to credit finding the coat back to you when I do (if you have a blog you'd like me to link to in the post, please let me know).<br /><br />My sweet husband truly spoiled me by getting the coat for me (I'd told him earlier that day how much I loved it), and again, I have you to thank for it, too!<br /><br />Endless hugs & thanks!!!<br />JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-31718827824474779602011-10-17T09:34:33.229-07:002011-10-17T09:34:33.229-07:00*squeeeeee*!! i can't tell you how very happy ...*squeeeeee*!! i can't tell you how very happy i am that 1) the coat is what you dreamed of and 2) you have that sweet blessing of a husband to give it to you!! <br />you have totally made my day with that news!!<br />may you wear it in the best of health, happiness and warmth! and can you believe that i found it b/c i couldn't remember what "princess cut" was and googled it???<br />many good wishes, k(elly)<br />ps. could you post a picture of it when you get it? you can take off your head if you want to :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-61641738005229277712011-10-14T14:01:16.556-07:002011-10-14T14:01:16.556-07:00Happy anniversary, sweetie.

Many thanks for your lovely comments. ...Hi ladies,<br /><br />Many thanks for your lovely comments. <br /><br />Patti, I'm delighted that you discovered Chronically Vintage and shared your thoughts with me (thank you!). I hope that winter takes it's sweet time in reaching you this year, as I can relate to those times when one is definitely not in the mood for Old Man Winter to pop up again!<br /><br />Kathie, your mom's coat sounds gorgeous. How wonderfully special that she still has it 51 years after she got it. Proof that they just don't make (most) garments like used to.<br /><br />K, that coat is 100% what I'm looking for. The cut, colour, style, it's all sublime! The price tag (especially factoring that they want so much to ship to Canada) is quite hefty though, so for the moment I'll put it at the top of the "maybe list", but still keep looking for something that be easier on the wallet. I truly appreciate that you shared that link with me and really do adore that coat, thank you!!!<br /><br /><br />Wishing you all a gorgeous Friday & weekend ahead, sweet gals!<br /><br />JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-38278391980332550282011-10-13T20:18:43.919-07:002011-10-13T20:18:43.919-07:00oh my gosh, my mother has a coat that looks like t...oh my gosh, my mother has a coat that looks like the lining!

It's gorgeous, and it really connects with my vintage-lovin' heart. (I'm now following, plus I grabbed your button.)<br /><br />I have 2 blogs, one is a classic movie review blog, the other is what I call my "beautiful things" blog...a bit of all the things I find beautiful---afternoon tea, genealogy, vintage treasures, family, etc.<br /><br />About that coat---it's beautiful. I love it. But I must tell you, unlike you, I am not ready for winter. Though raised in Pennsylvania, most of my adult life has been lived in Florida, so now that I'm back in a winter climate, I'm finding I really prefer year-round warmth. But a coat like that could almost make the winter bearable.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />PattiPatti https://www.blogger.com/profile/12931836399684850729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-11171320134167983182011-10-13T12:33:53.176-07:002011-10-13T12:33:53.176-07:00http://www.coutureallure.com/products/vintage-50s-...http://www.coutureallure.com/products/vintage-50s-princess-coat-charcoal-wool-medium-bust-38<br />was this like your coat? kind of expensive, but i thought it was pretty....good luck on your hunt! -kAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
