Alannah Hill, FASHION, Uncategorized PAUL FRANK & ALANNAH HILL 19 July 2007

So for the past 2 weeks or so, we’ve been hit with this weird FREEZING weather. Sydney normally is wonderful – even in winter, it’s still fairly mild and comfortable. But not so recently. It’s been frosty, freezing and all-round awful! Lots of rain, wild winds and just bone-chilling temperatures that we’re all not used to. Everyone’s been complaining and it even makes the news every day – apparently “the coldest it’s been in 20 years” or something like that. Bleh :X Worse yet, I’m allergic to wool – any kind of wool – and I hate looking like a big fat pig so I don’t tend to pile on the layers.. which means I’m always cold πŸ™

Welp, I bought a wool Paul Frank coat! Yes, it’s wool, I know.. but it’s lined (with the cuuuuutest rainbow Paul Frank lining!) so it’s alright with my skin. Other wool coats are lined too but they tend to become really bulky – I like how this one isn’t too chunky/fat looking. It’s a very normal dark gray, so I can wear it with anything.. and it has the cutest toggle button thingys! Very fun to fiddle with πŸ˜‰ The hood also comes in handy when it’s windy or raining. Oh, and did I mention the lining is sooooooooooooo cute!! There was only ONE left in the store and it was in my size, which is already a sign in itself. Then, I discovered it was on sale from almost $300 down to $110. Wheeeeee! Great deal on a lovely wool coat. So now I am toasty and warm walking to/from work πŸ™‚

I’m usually not a fan of Paul Frank but this coat is great. You’re right about the lining, it’s really cute πŸ˜€

oOOooo do you have a pic of your coat? I never knew PF did coats so now I’m all interested in their clothing stuff now πŸ˜›

really love the AH vest! what is it call?

didn’t know PF made a jacket! love the lining, very cute! unfortunately that jacket won’t be warm enough for our harsh Canadian winter :(. How cold is it over there now?

Hmm not sure, just a fitted vest I guess.. it goes really well over a thin long-sleeved top! Very warm πŸ™‚

Yeah I thought PF just made pajamas and cute accessories… heh. It goes down to about 5 degrees here *brrrrr*

it took me a minute to remember that it’s winter down there!

i had forgotten. it’s so effing hot in the southeastern US that i might want to trade places, though.
i love coats, jackets, sweaters, etc.

I’m definitely not a winter person, it just makes me miserable :X Bring on the hot weather that you have!! Lucky you!

i love the paul frank coat. and all the signs were pointing the to right direction so it was a good choice to get it. πŸ™‚

lovely coat!
this year has been so cold in melby too.
am piling on the gloves, scarves and watever i can find, the only thing i wont wear is a beanie πŸ˜›

dont worry, i look fat too!

Yeah winter’s been AWFUL so far in Sydney.. it’s almost unbearable :X

Hehe I wear hats! Not a beanie but the cute Alannah Hill hattie things…

Hahah well i guess there’s no choice! Here it’s normally still pretty mild so you can get away with a tee and a warm jumper/jacket.. hence why I don’t like wearing lots of layers now, just not used to it :X

Ooh great purchases! I love the lining on the coat, it’s so cute!

The weather is so weird. It’s so cold over there and they said on the news it was snowing around Melbourne too, but all week (except for today, where it rained and was cold and actually winter-y) it has been really sunny and warm.

It was apparently -3 degrees in some areas of Sydney 2 days ago… eek!! ANd it’s just SO frigid and awful lately :X you’re lucky it’s warmer there, bizzarely, heh!
