My Impersonation of an Igloo

It's late November and winter seems to have arrived. For southern CA, this means that the temperature dips below 50 F, which it did this weekend after a bit of rain. So, I gave in and bought a maternity overcoat - something I was hoping to avoid. My selection fit all my criteria for an overcoat - being comfortable, warm and not completely ugly. As an added benefit, it makes me look like a small building... and it makes me look about 30 pounds heavier than I actually am.

However, I was already grateful to have made this purchase (or to have had it made for me by my husband - thanks, honey) on Saturday, since I have already had occasion to wear it 2 days in a row.
