I am so excited to finally share my video from Florence. Two days of shooting with the Luisa Via Roma team was so much fun. I created ten looks and this in number six. Browse through my “LOOK” tab to see the other outfits.

This coat has been on my imaginery wish list for some time. By “imagernery” I mean the wish list that I make up in my head and it never comes to reality. This is my “wish wish” list. Basically it’s things I want but I know I won’t get it, we can dream and achieve but some times we just need to dream. This coat is very pricey, too much I thought. This all changed when I saw it in person and tried it on. If you watched my other video, the “luxury haul” you will know I always say sometimes you just know when you need to spend a little but more and you just have to have it. This happened with this coat. I thought cost per wear it would be worth it in the end. The quality of this coat is perfection, I felt like a queen. I know that when I am fifty years old I will still be wearing this coat. This was one of the items I ordered as soon as I got home. It also comes in camel (which I nearly ordered over the grey) and in black which look super luxe.
I kept the look all Balmain, apart form the accessories. My sweater is nice and long and it could be worn as a dress with a mini skirt or tights underneath. I love the gold buttons on the shoulder and neck, you can open the buttons or have a high roll neck. This sweater also comes in black. My velvet leggings are high waisted and majorly flattering, like all Blamain pieces. I also suggest investing in classic pieces that fit well and that you can wear over and over again.
This look was finished off with my Gucci Marmont boots which I have worn to death, they have worn really well and they are my most comfortable pair of heels I own. Check out my last twenty posts and I am sure you will see these boots at least ten times.
Finally I finished the look with a Saint Laurent little shopper bag. Big enough for a day but not too large. This bag is really light (which is important) and I love the black on black design. I have the smaller Saint Laurent WOC with black on black and it is so versatile.

Would like to inquire as to the fit of this stunning coat? Is it true to size?Thx!
I am wearing 38, there is so much room and I could easily wear the 36 but I always go for loose fit rather than tight. I would say true to size. Xx
