February's haul is all from H&M. I mainly shopped the sale since I needed free shipping for a new laundry basket for the baby room.
Now that my pregnancy is over, I realize I am still missing a warm winter coat since the Canada Gooses didn't work out for me two years ago. I decided to try Burberry's down puffer coats since I own so many of their coats and jackets because they fit so well (with free sleeve alterations). I ordered the
Burberry Limefield,
Kington, and a trench style to try. While I was most attracted to the style of the
Detachable Hood Down-filled Puffer Coat, after realizing the XXS was actually too tight for me, I was most hopeful about the
Buberry Kington coat since it looked so comfy and warm.
The
Burberry Limefield in XXS was actually very tight in the chest and shoulders so it had to go back but it's a nice, sleek puffer coat with a luxurious fur ruff around the detachable hood. The sleeves are a bit too long but it isn't noticeable with them scrunched up on me.
The
Burberry Kington in XXS was the only one that fit me comfortably and also allows me to wear a sweater underneath but I didn't love it enough to keep it. Since it is roomier than the Limefield, the longer sleeves are more noticeable.
The
Detachable Hood Down-filled Puffer Coat was also too tight across the chest and shoulders but has beautiful fur like the
Limefield, though the length is a bit too long for my frame.
Since none of these worked out, I decided to try the
Moose Knuckles Bridle Path Down Parka since it looks so cute with the pom-poms but while it is definitely warm and very heavy, it really overwhelmed my small frame.
While shopping for these winter coats, I also came across this cute
Madewell Shearling Trimmed Parka with pink fleece lining but also didn't love it enough to keep, which is more important than ever to me now after watching the popular Netflix series, Tidying Up with Marie Kondo.
I also want to point out this cute
Petite Houndstooth Tweed Jacket I tried on too.
And for those of you who celebrated the Lunar New Year of the Pig, happy new year!
