I've never bought a 'good' coat. I could never justify the money for an item that I would most likely be sick of after a few months. I tire of things rather quickly, especially if my choice is limited. Gosh I must sound quite spoiled! I think it has more to do with my [undiagnosed] OCD / ADD or whatever neurosis I suffer from! Therefore my motto is: Why limit yourself to just one good coat, when you can have many! Vintage coats allow me to have great quality, unique coats at a fraction of the price I'd expect to pay for a new one.
I recently culled my vintage collection to just seven coats. Don't for one minute think I am being sensible; I culled the tatty, well worn items in order to open up some cupboard space should another vintage gem take my fancy.
