I really, REALLY want the Edwardian Velvet Coat from J.Peterman's winter catalog.
However, I am not willing to spend $498 + shipping on it.
But damn. That is pretty much my platonic ideal of a velvet coat. Seriously, I've been looking off and on for years for a coat like that, in silk/rayon velvet. (Not cotton velvet or velveteen!)
I would tell myself that I could just sell a bunch of other clothes and boots and get it, but I suspect that with the world being what it is right now, I wouldn't actually manage a lot of sales. People are saving their money or donating it, and I completely support those things.
But I still ogle the catalog listing on a daily basis.
