winter outfit

[three things]
1. i do not think i have been adequately prepared for rainy weather for about the last twenty years.  i bought legit rain boots a few years ago, but i have relied heavily on umbrellas to compensate for my lack of a seriously waterproof jacket.  i mentioned a few weeks ago (post here) that i was looking for a parka and picked up this olive one from zara.  it's got a big hood, more toggles than any reasonable jacket needs, and enough pockets to carry a weeks worth of snacks.  (apparently i have some strange requirements for outerwear!)

2. i got to wear this jacket exactly once before the weather turned back to frigid.  it was a super rainy day and the jacket worked out perfectly though.

3. i only realized that the jacket has awesome leather patches on the back of the arms when i was hanging it up at work.  surprise!
