The perfect one!

If you have followed my earlier posts, you probably know that I had hard time finding a new winter jacket. Well, the day after I posted the entry I made some research through many stores' website.

Then I thought that I found one, from CUBUS, until I went to the store and tried it on. What was the problem then, you may ask? It was wayyyyy too big on me. It looked like I was wearing a tent. I was just about to give up, but decided to go MONKI, which was next to it. I do not go there very often, unless they have sales going on.

Out of sudden I found a jacket, which I have seen before on their website, but I was not interested then, because I thought it would be too long for me. Well, I found the smallest size they had and I tried it on...

It costs 800 NOK, which is 1 NOK more that the jacket that I found at MANGO.

This jacket from MONKI might not be a jacket for every occasion, but surely, I could use it from everyday to special occasions. It is not that waterproofed, but it can handle a bit snow and rain. There was nothing that I did not like about this jacket, except from that it is not as functional as I wanted "the perfect one" to be.

The color is actually a bit darker than this.

Of course I did purchased it, even though I think it was too pricey... Well, why should this come as a surprise for me, when basically everything in Norway is expensive?

I used to mind when I see people wearing the same clothes as me. A week after I bought this jacket, I saw a girl who has the same jacket on. Normally I would not mind, but this time it was hard for me to handle it. Why? Because it looks better on her!

Now that I have found the perfect bag and the perfect jacket, the next hunt will be the perfect (winter) shoes.

Have a nice one!
