I dream about fashion. No, really. Sometimes I’ll have a dream, and when I wake up, all I remember is what I was wearing. Last night, I was wearing this gorgeous ivory coat. Now, I have coats on the brain.

This week has been an absolute bear, so let’s reach into the reader mail bag and answer some questions. And let’s start with a post about affordable summer bags.
The Instagram story asking for submissions yielded so many good ones that I had to write a part two. Or part deux, for all you 90s kids who remember these movies.
Every month, I open up a channel on my Instagram for readers to ask me anything. Anything. I grab the most interesting, most useful questions and answer them here. Let’s get started.

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]
story time – my girlfriend was packing to sell their house and move. I went over to chat and help. She handed me a long ivory BR wrap coat, looks similar to #1 (but I don’t think closer to #2 pricetag) and said, “Here. You have this. I never wear it. I’m too scared of staining it.”
And have it I do. Love that thing.
Nice.
Love the Joseph wrap coat! Thanks to a massive markdown, I was lucky enough to snap up this DVF wrap coat (similar in execution to your first suggestion) in bordeaux. And every day I’ve worn it I’ve received compliments.

Oh that Corner Office version!
I haven’t checked their coat selection recently, but I highly recommend Bluefly’s designer coat sales. A couple years ago I bought a beautiful ivory wool T Tahari wrap coat for under-$150 from Bluefly that regularly costs $500. It’s tricky to keep clean, but I get my Olivia Pope moments during the winter without an Olivia Pope budget.
