Paddington

When I first bought this coat about seven years ago, I told Jeff that it made me feel like Paddington Bear, a beloved cartoon character of my past. He had no idea who this furry creature wearing a toggle button coat was. What a shame. Obviously, I educated him. He has an official site if you would like to meet him, too.

I am going to go sleep now because I took off work and grad class today for some awful grossness plaguing my respiratory system. (I am also confusing myself because I wrote this post on Tuesday night but scheduled it to go "live" on Wednesday morning.) Later, gators. 

Oh, if you're curious, I did not wear this outfit to work. I wore it for a rainy day of errands.


The Look:
Coat (so old): Michael Kors via Filene's Basement, I think
Jeans: high-rise "jeggings" from American Eagle (they're skinny jeans, honestly)
Boots: joules (won them in a giveaway two years ago)
Sweater: St. John's Bay (bought it on thredUP a year or two ago)
Necklace: Lauren Conrad via Kohl's

  1. I clicked the link thinking the "he" you were referring to was Jeff. Needless to say I was really confused about why Jeff's site was dedicated to Paddington. Those boots are awesome and I want your turtleneck. Hope you feel better!

  2. Oh no! You're sick again? I hope a day at home will help you get better! That sweater just looks so cozy and warm and those boots get me every time!

  4. Blergh, being sick is so crappy. I've been on the verge of a cold for the past several days, which is so annoying. I think I'd rather either get legitimately sick or feel 100% better instead of this whole can't-breathe-at-night-feel-exhausted-but-otherwise-normal-during-the-day shit I've been wrestling with recently.

    But I love that you love Paddington. I used to be utterly obsessed with Paddington - one year for my birthday, my parents bought me alllll Paddington-themed birthday gifts! Best birthday ever? I think so.

Feel free to throw some witticisms my way.
