..........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.

Oooh Luce, how lovely! However, am now feeling competitively cross because my Boden sale parcel has not yet turned up! I ordered the spotty wool coat. I really did want one of those velvet ones too but I was ever so restrained. Sadly, there was nothing much in the boys or mens sale so I just ordered loads of things for me (and one fox face t-shirt for Munch)! Anyway, glad you got yours, it's yummy.

it's gorgeous, and if it's not too sad to mention it, so is the packaging.......

Fantastic! I looooove the color and it looks amazing with the scarf. I have a Boden raincoat that makes me giddy every time I wear it.

Oh very you Lucy!
It goes gorgeously well with your crochet accessories.

What a lovely lovely coat and fantastic colour...I used to wear Boden all the time as did Poll's so we know the excitemet of a parcel...but she is too grown up and I am too rubeneque if only their size 20 was roomier.....I also love love love your flower scarf...perfect match...have a lovely day....

Lucy, you cutie...that looks absolutely beautiful on you...and your little crocheted scarf and bag totally completes it. Very Christmasy, I must say. I can just see you out skipping around...I'll bet you make people smile because you are probably just glowing with good spirits....your sweet happiness is very uplifting!
