Spring has sprung! Even though I see potential snow in the forecast over the next few days, I refuse to acknowledge or accept it and I’m in full jacket mode. Goodbye winter coats!
If you read last week, you’ll know that I’m a big fan of local talent when it comes to shopping for my wardrobe, especially when I find someone who will make something long enough.
I came across NRT Fashions for the first time on Instagram a few years ago and have been a fan ever since. I also happened to meet the designer, Nicole Rita Tomney, very briefly at the Calgary Tattoo convention just over a year ago, but didn’t buy anything at the time. A few months ago, I finally decided to splurge and buy myself a belated Christmas present after I wrote and asked if she could extend the sleeve length. I had been eyeing the Vengenance Coat for a long time so that was the piece I decided to add to my closet! Though the coat turned out to be much thinner than I originally thought, it’ll be perfect for spring weather. AND THE SLEEVES!! Nicole made sure there was extra length on my sleeves and it fits perfectly!!
