Blonde mink

I snagged this 1960's wool coat in a thrift store while on a trip to Connecticut to visit with family.  It's a dark rust color with a blonde mink portrait collar.  The sleeves are three-quarter length and the buttons appear to be made of "bakelight" plastic, which was a popular material for bangles and buttons during the 50's and 60's.  It's in excellent condition and is perfect for these cold-but-not-too-frigid winter days that we've been having!

Playing dress up

Found a few photos of my favorite dress up looks - I fully embraced all trends, from ladylike to tie-dye.
