this weekend, i was in a bidding war with another individual for this great coat on ebay. need is not exactly the right word to use in this situation, so i'll be truthful and say that i really, really wanted it. i have a black, vintage swing coat with a fur collar that i wear when i get really dressed up, and i have a black, wool kenneth cole reaction coat that i wear every other day during the winter. which means i'm lacking a coat that fits the occasions between every-other-day and really-dressed-up. what those occasions might be and how often they might occur did not cross my mind. this beige hilary radley totally fit the bill, but when the auction got up to $120 i stuttered in my bidding, wondering whether i really wanted to explain to the hubby why i had purchased yet another coat for our mild winters when i had two perfectly good coats taking up valuable space in our snug closet. with ten seconds left in the auction, i suddenly decided that, yes, this coat was worth more than $120 to me and i would bid higher. too late. an overly eager bidder who i'm not too happy with right now won the coat for $124.50. and after getting attached to this coat during the 2 days that i spent considering bidding and then actually bidding, i can't find another one like it anywhere. if any of you have one like it that you would like to sell, let me know!
