Often it seems like you have to make a choice: something that keeps you warm or flatters your curves, but never the twain shall meet. But here? They meet! And I totally see dressing this up over a full skirt or pairing it with some jeans and black high-heel boots for a casual (yet killer) look. Makes me miss winter. Almost!

Seriously, though...I want that coat (for fall and spring). I wish I had $235 to spend on it. And the dresses on My Black Dress and Shihar...OMG. I'm bookmarking all three of these in case my ship (of CASH) comes in. Although I'm glad they include plus sizes, those dresses are motivating me to keep on my weight loss journey for real...

And OMG I want every. single. item. from My Black Dress. Bestill my heart, I've got some budgeting to do!

But, Afrobella, I gotta tell you... you are "misunderestimating" the Chicago winters. Think more along the lines of, say, -10 and you'll want a warmer coat. I bet that coat would be good for October or November, though. :) I love the coat and that second dress! But, Afrobella, I gotta tell you… you are “misunderestimating” the Chicago winters.
