A Steal of a Deal: Perfect Rainjacket

Posted on by

H8701_PK5669_d3I am so very excited for spring. I do love boots and coats but I am ready to wear bright colors, sandals, and sunnies. But considering it is a 49 but feels like 40 degree its can not come soon enough. I was passively preening on J.Crew and they had a few cute new items. The Perfect raincoat is my new obsession. It was a great deal at $72.  I ordered the Rich Gold  (see below) and can not wait to pair it with booties in the transition time and chunky heels in the summer. The reviews say it runs big so I ordered a two sizes. Hoping one works and that this becomes a must have for my spring/summer ensembles yet to come. What are you obsessing over?  H8701_YL5461

“Home will never go away Home will be here when you come back. You may go to bring back fortune. You may go to escape misfortune. You may even go, just because you want to go. But when you come back. We hope you’ll come back Home will still be here.”
― Imbolo Mbue, Behold the Dreamers
In the last year I have read a few amazing books (Homegoing by Yaa Ghasi was my favorite) about what it means to American and the power of family and home. In an ever changing political and social climate Behold the Dreamers offers a glimpse into life from the the vantage of America’s dual perspective. The haves and the have nots. The American versus immigrant story. Those that have a sense of belonging and those that searching for it. The story is set in a time, a mere 10 years ago, when the hope of something better prompted a nation and the main characters to start a new life. A very good read with all the emotional ebbs and flows with a redemptive ending.
Avec Amour,
