The Paris Coat

The Paris Coat or so I've named it - the incredible deal I found in my rounds of secondhand/consigment stores. Normally I no longer care about name brands ..let alone couture. This coat however fit me perfectly and it was couture. A beautiful soft camel color that looks very, very, very expensive. OMG! Granted, as I spent minimal amounts on clothes I even planned on wearing this coat to the dog park.

Something funny happens when I wear the coat, people smile more at me, sales persons fall all over themselves to help me and I even had an ole drunks give me a second glance and say "Hiya Beautiful!". In my younger years I would have been insulted ..now that it no longer happens ..I appreciated a comment ..even from an old guy that probably couldn't see straight.

The other day I spent 5 hours chopping up fallen branches and sawing logs in my garden that had fallen in a storm. Dirty and tired I realized there was nothing for dinner. With messy hair, gum boots and a tired wrinkled face I raced to the grocery store...oh and I put on THAT coat.

I notice someone staring and suddenly he's by my side. A very handsome young man who says, "I couldn't help staring at your beautiful eyes" Not knowing how to react, I laugh. He says," Oh and your smile is beautiful too!" I suddenly feel like I'm in a Sex in the City episode. I blurt something and race outta there. I was uncomfortable but found myself smiling on the way home.

Arriving home I tell my boyfriend and son about the weird thing and slightly boasting I say...whoooo hoooo I still have it!! That is unless he thought I was a lonely old rich lady who he could scam?

They tell me to look in the mirror and I do....horrified that under my nose down to my lip is a big streak of dirt and one on my cheek as well. HAAAAAAAAAAA!

No fair Ginny!!! I have no doubt that all who come across you also smile and speak in nice terms too while wearing your outfit. I know I would, or else, you might whack me in the head with a hatchet or something. Kinda like Anthony Hopkins in Psycho while he's dressed as "mother". :roll:

>>>Humbly hands over tiara to Ginny for the best dog park coat. :wink:

Hugs to everyone!
:ghug:

No pics of it yet but yesterday I wore a jacket and boots similar to yours and still got attention. as an emergency call to the plumber and then the city. The city crew showed up within mins much to my astonishment. It wasn't the coat...but may be that the sewer line backed up and myself and the plumber where in the crawl space trying to race against time with buckets and whatever we could grab. The smell was delightful and I again received second glances from the work crew. :sidestep: Now I realize it's not the coat...but everyone feels sorry for me. Nyuck Nyuck.
