New jackets and/or coats?

Is anyone buying new jackets and/or coats this fall? I had to get rid of a couple of jackets, but am trying to get by with a couple of old ones. Coats are expensive and I worry about where I'll be next winter. Meanwhile, I look kind of sloppy. :-(

  • EBay is a great place to get cheap coats and jackets.

  • I bought a really cute coat at Ross for less than $20.00. I haven't needed a coat in years, but without my extra 100 lbs of "insulation", I am freezing!

I'm not even close to goal and I'm swimming in my coats, dress pants and jeans. I kinda look like a hobo in my coat, but I can't imagine buying one only for a few months, so I plan to just suffer through it. The jeans thing, I plan to wear yoga and compression pants until winter is over. The dress pants thing, I'm going to have a few skirts taken in and try to get by.

I'm early yet so I'm still fitting in the ones that were getting too snug. That said when the time comes I will be buying new clothes here and there. I've never been about looking sloppy. In fact one of the thing people often asked me was how I dressed so nice a larger woman. I like looking cute and always will.

I will still fit in mine from last year that was snug. Next year will be new wardrobe time. Luckily I have kept clothes from size 16-22. So I'm ok for the next couple months. Lol but I'm a shopper. So I have no problem getting a new wardrobe every few months ????
