It REALLY Did Call Out To Me

I was in dire need of some new winter clothing as the Holiday Parties had officially started.  So I run to Cato's in Jacksonville as that is still my favorite one and was going to get a blouse or two or maybe a whole outfit, wasn't going to meander long as I was due at my first HP that very evening. As I walked into the front doors I heard a call out to my Right, "Hey Miss, You SO Need To Try Me On"  So I slowly turned to my right thinking to myself well that is just plain weird, when I caught a glimpse of this lone jacket hanging there all pretty and zebra striped and smiling right at me.  I walk towards it mesmerized by the sheer awesomeness of it as if I was under it's spell.  In the back of my mind I am thinking, it will never be my size, what the heck do I need with a jacket in East Texas, I have a new coat I hardly wear.  That's it as it only took that long to make it over to the jacket and take it off the hanger and try it on, never looking at the size.  OMG!!  It fit perfectly and I just knew it was MINE!  Never in the history of my shopping experiences have I ever had this happen EVER!
Needless to say I hung onto the jacket with a grip like no other until I found a couple more blouses and then I could not pay and sneak out of there fast enough before the world let me in on a cruel joke or there were cameras there to PUNK me.  We made it home safely and have made one appearance together so far with many more planned!  Kind of wishing I had it right now...

12/28/11 I have lost over 55 pounds and the perfect coat is a LOT too big but I am still wearing it.  So today I dropped it off to be altered to fit the new me!  I can not give it up-I really do LOVE my coat!  Loads of compliments on it too.  Sorry Sam, gonna keep it a while longer...

01/11/2012 My coat it ready for me to try on...
01/26/2012 I wore it to the Graveside services of Sammy Paul Chance and it did me well!  Pulled the collar up to protect me from the wind.

I LOVE MY COAT-have gotten so many stop and stares and compliments on it.
