I found this vintage faux fur jacket in October at my local boot sale just as I was leaving. What drew me to it was the knitted arms it had-quite different from whats on offer and as it fitted like a glove, I thought I'd have it for just £10.
I've already worn it a few times, so cost per wear is going down and down, lol!!
For all the faux fur I have in my wardrobe, every piece is just at thigh length, so I'm now on the hunt for a maxi length winter coat-maybe, faux fur or maybe wool/cashmere camel, it depends on what I see on my travels. But I'm setting my sights on a good quality piece that I can keep, so if I don't find one this winter, I'll invest next year for winter 2011.
What item are you coveting still for winter?

oh I'm loving the 'cost per wear' theory! ;O) I need to get some faux furs, I just can't quite find the right little number so the hunt goes on x
p.s thank you for your comment on my blog. I hopefully will be swapping the lemsips for mulled wine very soon!
Great find and I love the knitted sleeves xx
Ooh I like your new collage of photos - and the faux fur of course!
really a very nice coat, it suits perfect! Reallly stinning! Love the knitted sleves :)
The sleeves are a nice touch! It's like the opposite of my wool coat with furry sleeves. Which, come to think of it, is black. We could be polar opposites! Reverse twins!
Ooo nice one My Style. I love your hat too. Great gets.

Dear Sharon, I love it, the knitted sleeves really make it. I'll keep my eyes open for a full length coat for you. I've seen a few recently that I think you'dl like. I find the best time to get a bargain coat is in the summer. Have a great week xx
Well you look so nice Love the coat very cute!! I finally got my hands on a really nice warm sweater and I got a pea coat this weekend as well. We don't get very cold here in Southern California but cool enough that you need a coat and a few sweaters. Good luck on your Coat Hunting ~Love Heather
Wow!!! That's fabulous,and so different!
A maxi length would be a greataddition to the coat collection!

Oh I can just imagine you in a sweeping Russian style number!
