Okay guys, major dilemma! My sister and I went to TJ Maxx on Sunday and I found this AMAZING leopard fur coat (faux fur, of course!) for $40. It is SO SOFT and I love leopard buy only have leopard print shoes so I had to have it. My mom offered to pay for it and give it to me for Christmas if I wanted. I am leaning toward Christmas so that way the $40 won't come out of my budget...but I don't know if I can wait another month to wear it...but then again I don't know when it will be cold enough to wear it since it's been pretty mild lately. What do you think: be patient and wait for Christmas or keep it? Here's a quick outfit I came up with (pretend my socks are black...I didn't want to change them).
(my mom walked in when I was taking the first photo...I thought it was funny XD)
Jacket - TJ Maxx $40 (the tag says compared at $80, but that seems low....I can't find the brand online though so I guess I'll never know the real price....it's Sisters Outerwear)
Jeans - Sass & Bide $30
Heels - Forever 21 $25.80

LOVE the jacket! I'd try and wait until Christmas if you can, but it is gorgeous either way. Nice heels too
ReplyDeleteThis outfit looks good! I would want it now, but guess I would wait until christmas, as theres really not that long now, and if its been mild, might as well save your money :) x

It's gorgeous. Be patient and wait 'til Christmas! It'll be much colder than any way.
ReplyDeleteOhhh, so amazing! Since it's not that cold out, I'd just wait for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteDo it for Christmas! You won't be able to wear it until then anyway, and you'll have $40 still in your budget! My mom has been nice and done that for me too before :)
ReplyDeleteSave it for Christmas! It looks really good with those black skinnies and heels. You look like the uber-chic wife of a rich man... or perhaps a self-made fashion mogul. :) Saving it will really give you something to look forward to in the bleak gray months.

Wait for xmas unless it's gets really cold and beg for it back. I didn't even need a coat today but I do think in a week it's supposed to get colder.

keep and wear it now!!! I Love it. It is fantastic on you. :)SarahD
ReplyDeletelove the coat :)
ReplyDeletedef a keeper!!!!!
ReplyDeleteis fantastic :)..... you have to think about because it was still a little time to the world and after 2 you will have a surprise because you know what you get:)
ReplyDeleteI would say since you've already styled it and had so much to do with it then keep it. I like my Christmas presents a little bit surprising, even if I know what they are. Plus, that way you'll get something else for Christmas! Budget, smudget!
ReplyDeleteThe perfect leopard print coat! I like the sheen the camera picks up!
