The Fabulous Coat!

The next big problem I faced was my coat. After trying on my gowns at the thrift emporium, I examined the coat rack there. They had quite an assortment of coats, including a lovely faux fur coat which was, alas, too small. There were also some fine wool coats there. For a moment, I considered buying a wool coat and dressing it up with diamonds from a craft store. Small cellophane packets of diamonds are available for a mere $1.79 at my local crafts store and a glue called “Goop” does wonders for affixing diamonds to wool. Ultimately, I decided against all the home crafts nonsense and to just buy a fur! After all, fur is how we billionaires show our splendor!

With that in mind, I found a lovely soft grey faux fur on ebay. Perfect! And I only paid $20.00 with the shipping and handling! I also bought another, more Margaret Dumont-esque faux sable fur coat with a gorgeous stand-up collar for a mere $32 dollars with shipping.

Having the two radically different styles of coats may mean that I have a split personae, but I can afford to live with that! Stay tuned for more adventures, darling! I still have to get my hat, jewels, shoes and gloves!
