Jacket: Rose Wholesale c/o – $15.92  |  Solid Tee: Target  |  Jeans: DIY distressed (these would be a good pair to distress)  |  Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell x Nastygal (sold out – love these)  |  Sunglasses: Miu Miu  |  Bag: Baghaus c/o  |  Earrings: Tory Burch  |  Watch: Michael Kors

I love the retro feel of this coat from Rose Wholesale.  I rarely wear pink in large scales like this, but I loved the shape so much I knew I would be able to get over the pink.  Turns out, it’s more of a coral-pink than a bubblegum pink, which I prefer.  I have a lot of pieces from China based companies, and I know many people are wary of that.  I can tell you so far I’ve had great experiences.  This particular coat shipped so fast (the waiting is usually the biggest downside).  I think the important thing is to have realistic expectations.  The coat is $15.92, so it’s not going to be the same quality as a $200 coat.  But for the same price of what I spend on some meals out, I think I will definitely get some great wears out of it.

Speaking of good deals, I used some saved up Christmas money to buy this beauty from Kate Spade.  It is already over 50% off, and then I used the 15% off coupon you get when signing up for their email list at the bottom of the page.  It was around $200 total for a close to $500 bag and I have to say I feel like I really scored.  I’ll post pictures when I get it and give a little bag review – since I preach investments on bags and shoes I want you all to know my honest opinions!

    How would you compare the quality to someplace like Forever 21? Also, I've noticed that many of the overseas wholesalers only offer one size. Do they run bigger? Smaller? I always see things I'd like to try but even with the inexpensive price, I'm still hesitant. Thanks for all of your tips!

    ok what an awesome coat! i think that is a great piece to have in your closet.

    also the claremont drive handbag is to die for. i know you will love it when it arrives. i bet it will take you a while to even want to put it down. can't wait to actually see what you think about it tho!

    I love the cut and color of your coat! It certainly doesn't look like it cost less than $20!
