So I got this coat from a thrift store in Gainesville called Flashbacks last semester (imagine it without all of the hot pink spots). I thought it was perfect since I was going through that whole "I need to be more girly" phase at that time (I was told I only have one style so I had to let these mofos know that I'm versatile). One cold day I decided to wear it on campus and from that day forth I was deemed "Olivia Pope". See people, there are levels to this ish. The coat is nice and all but it is nowhere near Miss Pope's level. She got moneyyyy! I don't (hence the blog's name).

But yeah...

I wore it a couple of times so it needed to be washed. I tend to just throw things into the washer without checking pockets and stuff. At least this time I checked the tags to confirm that it was washable and dry-able! But um so... when I opened the door to the dryer I saw pink stuff all over the inside. I almost cried when I witnessed the gobs of pink spotted mess on my favorite coat. Then I paused, took a second look and figured it didn't look so bad. The spots give off a type of paint splatter effect. Pretty artsy huh?

The culprit was some cheap pink lipstick that I left in one of my pockets. Lesson learned. The problem is figuring out what to wear with it...
