I’ve been shopping for a new coat. So, the day after Thanksgiving, I went hunting for one. I first spotted a beautiful, green, wrap coat in Marshalls, but the only size available was too large for me. So, I launched a serious search to find that coat in my size. In St. Louis, there are 9 Marshalls stores within 25 miles of my home, and one of them was going to have my coat.

The Marshalls Goddesses smiled on me because the next day, I found the coat in my size and in the perfect shade of purple. Between the color and the beautifully draped cascade collar, it was a winner.

Purple Rain
While in the checkout line at Marshalls, the woman behind me asked if purple was my favorite color. I was curious as to why she asked me that. She then pointed out all of the purple things I was either wearing, holding, or carrying. It was a lot, y’all. I guess purple is a favorite color of mine?
That encounter made me take a closer look at a few of my recent purchases, and apparently, it has been raining purple in my closet.

Okay. I guess it’s safe to say that I love purple. What color(s) do you find yourself drawn to?
Super cute coats! Love the colors.
I love that green coat! AH!
I am also a purple lover but the green coat is TDF! The colour is so rich!
Wow, that is gorgeous!!! Love it. I also love purple (and green)
Love the coat! In both colors!:)
Great coat! I'm drawn to purples and oranges.
9 marshalls with 25 miles of your home!?!?! *passes out*
@Sing: Thanks. That green one had me so excited in the store!
@Jane: Right! I haven't seen that color in any other stores in my size. I've seen the black and purple in a couple places.
@AngelatheCreativeDiva: Hey fellow purple-lover! Yes, that green coat had spinning with excitement. Too bad I couldn't find it in my size.
@Andi: That draped neckline is so attractive!! I loved it in both colors. I'm almost gave in and got the black one, which I spotted first in my size in a TJ. But, I held out, and luckily found the purple.
@Shoe Bell(i)e: Thanks! Nice details, right?
@NerdGirl: Oooh…orange is fabulous too! Definitely another color I love.
@Anonymous: Right!!! When I was in KY, there were only 2 Marshalls in Lexington, so I love being in St. Louis now. I didn't even tell you how many TJ Maxxes we have…
Love all the purple! It's my favorite too.
