Vintage Chic ~~ Winter Coats

Good morning!

It’s 7F in Western Michigan…what an opportune time to “reblog” a previous post I did last March about winter coats. I am joining forces with Jill (Every Thing Just So) and Adrienne (The Rich Life on a Budget) for this month’s “How I Wear My…” featuring COATS!
