Can you believe this was my mothers @surferchic? Thank you! For the share!!
surferchic
@coolmelanie She has amazing style just like her daughter. :)
coolmelanie
@surferchic my mother has officially fallen in love and adopted you. When she sees me in the coat, she always says, "I can't believe I ever fit into that!" And asks to swap bodies. Mine may have betrayed me, but it's still all I have and I worked my ass off to stand on my two feet again, so I'm not trading unless its Heidi Klum!
surferchic
@coolmelanie I wouldn't mind trading with Heidi, either! I would take her body and her closet!
coolmelanie
@surferchic lol. How old is your daughter. Btw, love her name!

@vacat thought you'd love this one. Can't believe I'm parting with it.
vacat
I can't believe you're parting with it, but I understand why!!! You're right - my body has issues too, but its mine and I'm working hard to keep it healthy. Heidi Klum I'd swap with. What is it like five kids and still looks like that, double syllable daaaamn!!!
coolmelanie
@anniesun FYI love your choices! You have great style!
classyvintage
Wow
coolmelanie
@classyvintage Thank you! I think it's a wow piece too. I can bring it to Vegas if you want to see it in person.
classyvintage
I love it but get lost in them. I'm only 5/2 and they tend to make me look 4/2 if I don't keep things pretty simple. That makes me love it all the more.
coolmelanie
@msorida Thank you! 💝

@jbanksie13 I give at least 10% off all bundles, but feel free to make an offer anytime. I'm rather firm on this piece because it's one of a kind, literally!

O.O MIND. BLOWN. (Doesn't help that I am a total myth & fantasy fan & have a dozen period fairy-tale books with this style of illustration. However, I'm also poor, so I will stare, and sigh. Yum!)
dreadhead
Love it❤️❤️
coolmelanie
@dreadhead it was my mother's. I love this piece.

This is Amazing!! 😄
mamamoonchild
Woah, this is amazing...
coolmelanie
@mamamoonchild Thank you! It was made for my mother in the 70s. I'll have to ask her for the story behind this amaaaaaazing piece.
singaporejones
Gods I still want this coat still but have no $400 in couch change 😢
singaporejones
I honestly can't believe you still have it!
coolmelanie
@singaporejones aww thanks. I haven't decided yet if I'll consign or keep it if it doesn't sell before i "retire" in about 2 weeks.
singaporejones
If you keep it I will FIND a way to buy it by the end of the year! I know that's six months away for Pete's sake but it's just too cool, and I write fantasy/speculative fiction. It also reminds me of the old illustrated fairy tale books I read when young. And the colors are just too good. I might be able to do it over two months... I'll look at things and see. But this is just exceptionally OOAK. 💖
singaporejones
The only thing it's missing is a dragon possessively coiled around it! 😁
coolmelanie
@singaporejones can you email me and we can have each other's info for after I leave? Mnm1512914@gmail.com
singaporejones
Will do! I am either singapore.jones@yahoo.co.uk or skaldscribe@gmail.com - i check both regularly but will email you later today anyway. 💖
singaporejones
Honestly, you have the coolest things, I just have had to focus on other purchases for a while. 😣
singaporejones
Last thing I'll add for now is that if you're of a mind to mess with it, I know a variety of people who have better luck selling unusual and cool pieces on Instagram. Just a thought. One of the reasons i keep rethinking listing on here is that my items are largely vintage. But that's just a thought. ☺
coolmelanie
@singaporejones I didn't know that. I'm stopping Poshmark because my health issues have become more complicated ass and I have not been able to be very active Avenue last year or so. So I decided letting somebody else do the selling would be best for now.
singaporejones
I hear that. My bipolar II makes being "normal" a day to day happenstance. I'll hope that your issues become more manageable soon! It's always a struggle, it seems. 💚
coolmelanie
@singaporejones thanks for your empathy. It wasn't an easy decision to make, but I think these kinds of changes will be the best choice for my health. I'm sure we can share more week can you to keep in touch. I wish you a wonderful peaceful happy again.
coolmelanie
@singaporejones Siri… Not against
singaporejones
Not sure what you meant by your last comment?.sorry, not parsing well today what with a bad headache 😜 but more later!
