Right now, it is hard for me to imagine that last week-end came with rain. A set of cold grey drizzly days that seemed more like late winter than early spring. But it did, and I was layered up in knit caps, tights, a sweater and a couple of kittens. The silver lining to this cloud cover was that I had just gone thrifting and scored for $3.98 an awesome winter jacket- A black wool Erin Fetherson for Target number that came equipped with a ruffled shoulders, velvet trim, heart pockets and on the back of the coat, a black-as-your-soul heart applique. Oh you know I will be wearing the sleeves off of these hearts next winter, don't you? Well, I was glad to have it on hand (I've packed up all my winter coats already) to sport around town last Saturday. Which is when I wore this outfit.

Nice score on the coat! I put all mine away too then we got a lil chilly spell! Good thing kitties are so snuggly and warm, huh!!
That coat has just hit my wish list.
I will keep it in the pleats of my heart.
A bunch of besos.

Hello my two favorite women! <3
This coat is beautiful!
What a darling coat! I wish it would rain here, it's about +30 degrees and sunny, and I got a sunburn :S
Gah, that coat is such a find! And Georgie is adorable. I can practically see him prancing.
The hat, the coat and the cat plus Coltrane = joy!
I must agree, the coat is so cute! Not cuter than cats though. We had a male cat (Tommy) but had to give him away. We live in an apartment and he was a very active cat. At one point he was climbing and jumping on the walls. Now he's happily part of a family with a big yard.
omg kitteh!
well it's cool that you have a cat always trying to sneak into your home... i wish i had a friend like that.
:)
Love this outfit. You look fabulicious.
I take care of two feral cats too! One of them is always trying to be our house cat too. But our real house cat isn't having it. Every now and then you'll see them in some of my photos. And I love to oblige with pets and love as well.
xo,

I wish I could wear a coat right now. It was 101 degrees out here in DC today. Where did Spring go?
Cute, cute jacket! So strange to be sitting here in close to 100 degree heat and looking at you in a coat!! Cute cat too!
Well that coats was worth feching it home. You look wonderfully terrific, if I can say that , of course now with the change in weather you might have to store it away,but I would wait awhile with the crazy weather we have been having. You look great as always. Love
That jacket will go perfectly with your heart shaped glasses. That is really kind of you to feed the feral kitties.
I cant believe you purchased that coat for under $4! Talk about a bargain!
The red knit cap with black velvet heart are perfect together. And of course Coltrane.
That coat is DIVINE!! Oh I adore that heart on the back. I tell you Bella, red is your color!
Love the jacket and the red stockings.
The outfit has a Parisian twist to it!
I love the red near your face. Plus it always makes me happy to see what a clear vision of your aesthetic you have....
wow, that jacket is amazing. the heart details are lovely--i can't wait to see more of it in the fall.
what a nice feral kitty!
Its a beauteous coat!
SUCH a lovely coat! AND kitty!!!

It has been rubbish and rainy here too. What happened to summer? I adore that coat, the sleeeves were lovely enough and then I saw the heart - swoon! xx
I love Erin Fetherston's designs; that jacket is really cute!
Wow, that jacket is awesome! I love the sleeves and the heart in the back.
That's a definite score! Ahhh, I love hearts & Coltrane. You're looking stylish as always dear!

You guys get the best Target collections!!!! The velvet heart on the back is such a nice detail x
That coat has been such a score! I envy!!!!! Sigh!
There is nothing like a bit of red to cheer you a rainy day.
Bella Darling! I love that first photo of you with your "come hither if you dare" stare! You are absolutely delightful and the coat is fantastic! I love the shoulders and the heart! Red beret and tights - adorable!!
I have the same jacket! I however, did not get it for the price that you did, you lucky gal! Isn't the jacket great? I got it a few years ago at Target and I still get compliments on it. It's by far one of my favorites. You look fantastic! Here's my post where I'm wearing it, too.

That jacket is just fabulous! I bet it sold out at Target in like 10 seconds. Lucky girl you found it on super sale. Now I'm feeling lucky too - maybe a trip to "out of the closet" is in the future...
I want your black heart!!! For real! What a great find.
I actually have the opposite problem...have not packed up my winter wear: boots, coats, ect. Summer came much too fast in NY.
