..........happy Chriiiiiistmas to MEEEEEEEEEeeeeEEEeEEee!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh what complete and utter joy in the Attic24 house this morning!!
My beautiful, desirable, glorious new coat arrived from Boden.
Do you recall me lusting after it?
Dreaming of it but thinking it would never be mine because it cost too much?
Well thanks to the lovely Emma, Rowena and Karen (thankyou thankyou thankyou) who took the trouble to notify me of the Boden Sale, my coaty dream came true.
Am I excited??
You would not believe the singing and dancing and leaping about that took place this morning.
And is it as lovely as I thought it would be?
Very much more so.
And does it delight every fibre of my being when I skip down the street wearing it?
Oh, you cannot begin to imagine.

I've just been shopping in Oxford and Per Una has a very, very similar coat in now! It actually reminded me of yours which I saw in a blog post recently.

Yippeee!!!! I'm so happy you got the coat Lucy! It really was meant for you :o) I love the colour and the lining is so so beautiful I keep coming back to the attic just to admire it. Isn't it amazing that you made the scarf before you saw the coat (is that right?) and used the same lovely green - the scarf is so pretty, it just looks perfect.

Oh I so recognise the excitement of the boden box waiting in the kitchen after a bad day at work. My pristine taped box(that is never dented or marked)contained a blue velvet short coat which is just fab. Looking at your combo, mine might just need a bright scarf to set it off too-this might be my Christmas holiday project. Many thanks for cheering me up-I pop in to your Attic most days and always come away smiling. Happy Christmas!
