Sunday How I Like It // The Mango Quilted Coat

18 November 2012



Waffles!!

I think you all know me well enough by now to know that Sundays are my casual and comfortable day. I love nothing more than a lazy Sunday spent strolling round the park, drinking coffee, reading and relaxing with my two favourite guys.

Unfortunately for us, the temperatures here in Korea will plummet to well below freezing in the coming weeks, so whilst this new down coat is a pretty purchase for now, it's also a necessity for later. Last winter my thick wool coat just didn't cut it and I was just about frozen to death on a couple of occasions. This year I knew exactly what I needed, a long and thick layer of feather padding with a fur lined hood! Mango delivered the goods and trust me when I tell you that I'll be bundled up with at least three layers under it, a thick woolly scarf and the fur hood pulled tight around my face in no time at all. Yep, it really does get that cold here! Last year went to minus17.8°C!! 

For now though, we're happy to make the most of the much milder afternoons and my new coat is keeping me so toasty. I find something so enjoyable and satisfying about being able to snuggle up in big puffy jackets like this one when there's a chill in the air. We had a lovely Sunday, as always, and man were those waffles good!!

How's your weekend been? How cold does it get where you are and what do you wear?

    1. Korea is really lovely! You should visit one day. It's not one of the countries on many peoples travel lists, guess Japan and China come first but its definitely an interesting country, with plenty to see! :) x
