Fashion: Look what I found

It's amazing what I find when I go through the laundry pile in the laundry room. Usually it's just a lot of towels or sheets. Yesterday as I was working through the pile I found my amazing coat purchase. Why was it in the laundry and buried? Well, it's a white denim coat and it had seen the floor a lot at TJ Maxx. So when it came home, it got placed on the laundry pile and slowly fell back to the bottom. When I found it yesterday, it went straight into the wash and came out looking brand new!

I had seen it at the store a few times. It was one of those ugly duckling jackets that just kept getting passed around. The day I bought it, I found it laying on the ground. I was just going to pick it up and put it back, because a size small does not fit me right now. I caved and tried it on...and it fit, really well. Then there was the price...$20 for a Calvin Klein trench coat. Yes please!

Try not to mind the wrinkles, I just got it out of the dryer and haven't had the chance to steam it.

I love the dip dyed/tie dyed feeling the bottom of the coat has. In person the color is a bright aqua and jungle green.

Not going to lie, the inside lining was a huge selling point for me. Isn't it amazing?

So for $20 I'd say I did pretty well. Plus now that it's washed it can now be put into rotation!

Okay...back to more laundry.
