20121104-184542.jpgOn this past gloomy Saturday morning, I dragged my sniffling, congested self to class. Sometimes it just takes a little makeup and a bright cashmere sweater to make you feel like a real person who most certainly did not blow half a cup of snot out of her nose the night before.

Then again, sometimes sprucing yourself up can backfire, like when you convince yourself that you’re feeling all better so you think it’s OK to stay out late and have a couple margaritas, and then on Sunday morning you feel like shit pancakes. Anyway…Have a great week, everyone, and remember to wash your hands.

Blog Takeover

Hello, I’m Sarah’s new coat, and I will be writing today’s blog post. Sarah is busy packing for her trip to Florida (for which she will be leaving me behind, I might add).

I am a Majesty Peacoat from a magical place called J. Crew. As you can see, I am quite photogenic. I am made of beautiful Italian wool, and I have shiny gold buttons. I don’t mean to brag, but Sarah is so lucky she found me. I mean, how good am I making her look right now??

Sarah wore me for the first time on Saturday and already got a compliment thanks to my beauty and class. The only problem is, the compliment was: “cute jacket.”

“Cute jacket”?? Are you kidding me? Even Helen Keller could see that I am so much more than a “cute jacket.” If only I could have spoken, I would have set this girl straight, but since Sarah is much nicer than I, she just said, “Thank you! It’s new.”

Sarah told me I had to tell everyone where to get all the elements of her outfit, although for the life of me I can’t imagine how you could have eyes for anyone except yours truly. But just in case…
