    Loving all of your picks. I’ve been lusting after a coat like that for quite some time now. Maybe Santa’s been listening and it will be under the tree. :)

    Thanks for getting back to me! I even checked their website but didn’t see it the first time. I guess it would have helped if I looked under “wrapping” LOL! I’m going to have to order me some! :)
