This post on outerwear for Sophistique Noirs monthly theme isn’t my usual outfit post. (Check her out for the love of goth here! – Are agnostics even allowed to make religious puns?) Instead it’s a kind of wishlist outlining some things that I want, that I’ve bought and that just were not meant to be throughout the month of January.
The Good
I bought two new coats from my usual leather jacket place, SheInside. They haven’t arrived yet but I’m really excited because I’ve been wanting a faux fur leopard print coat for what seems like forever. The other is a straighter styled black coat with fake leather trim. I wanted something that would be easier to pair than the coat pictured below that overwhelms any outfit. Both were on sale!

The Bad
As for something bad I was a bit stumped for this one. Instead I’ll list things I want but probably won’t get for some time. (Boo to not being able to buy everything in the world right this second!) The first is a utilitarian style anorak in a military style and on that note a military coat that isn’t too heavy or offensive – but that’s kind of what my dreams are made of rather than anything I’ll actually stumble upon. Other than that I would love a denim jacket – preferably in a darker wash or with kickass patches. Which brings us to the traumatising.
The Traumatising
Currently I’ve been obsessed with adding statement pieces to my wardrobe (I’ve felt really boring; do any of you know this feeling?), so of course I decided to browse the Hot Topic website. Unbeknownst to me, upon falling in love with a certain denim jacket I found they actually have the most ridiculously high international shipping (even for Canadians). But I was determined, I was so far into the mindset that if I didn’t have this jacket I would probably died purely from lacking it. It was then I found that those outside of the US can’t use Paypal. Searching the internet and finding nothing but Amazon had to convince me that it must not have meant ‘to be’. Que first world disappointment.
Do you guys get so invested in items that you would probably battle to the death for them? It can’t just be me! What are your outerwear wishes and woes of the new(ish) year?
