Which means 33% of people just don’t get me, man.
If I were to poll my immediate family only 33% (Milo) would give it a ‘yay’ which is even more concerning. It is so very me. There’s something carefree and yet super bougie about a furry, leopard coat. Something that is made or broken by my hair and makeup, I’ve discovered. I tried it on in store with some smokey glam on and was really feelin’ myself. This morning; looking worse for wear after a glass or 3 of wine last night, it was a little more ‘did she sleep in it?’ trashy than ‘cool, Kate Moss falling out of a nightclub’ trashy. It won’t stop me wearing it, I just thought it was an observation worth passing on to you fellow School-runners.
So, it’s love. I’m planning on taking it to Paris with me next month so it can live its best, bougie life, styled out with grungy hair and dark glasses and I’m thinking I have some kindred spirits out there who may be interested in the styles I was stalking before I found this for a bargainous £30 in Primark.
I know you’re worried people will think you’re nuts. I know you probably live a perfectly normal non-Londony life where you rocking up in a furry coat may be the talk of the office for the next week but if you’re in to it, get in to it! It’s super on-trend and soon they’ll all be wearing them (H&M have a mens version that I’ve already tried and failed to get my husband to try on) so why not be the first?

I’ve never been a leopard-print coat fan (I grew up with Bet Lynch!) but the Primark one has changed my mind. It’s gorgeous. Looks great on you too.
Have you seen the River Island one with the pink collar?? It’s x
