I have made the dreadful mistake of having two winter coats. To those who are used to making clothing decisions, this may seem trivial, but I am now in danger of standing in front of the coat pegs trying to decide which one to choose. And just to emphasise that, this post is written because<\/em> I spent 30s doing exactly that the other day.<\/p>\n

Should I choose the sensible coat (which seems to have mysteriously lost girth in the last few years), or do I choose the extreme weather coat? Weather sometimes makes the choice for me, but more often than not it doesn’t. Which one looks better?<\/p>\n

Now that is a daft question. I\u00a0can<\/em> make myself look “smart” but that comes at the cost of looking like I work for one of the Kray twins<\/a> (or rather their spiritual descendants). Probably one with an affectionate nickname like “Murder Mike”.<\/p>\n

Although that could have something to do with the expression that automatically appears on my face whenever I put on a suit. The kind that causes small children to burst into tears when they see me with it.<\/p>\n

On a slightly more serious note, it is worth noting that con-men have also heard the phrase “Clothes maketh the man” and makes use of it.<\/p>\n

Or which one is more comfortable? Well in extreme weather, the extreme weather coat of course, but it also quickly becomes too warm. And it’s heavy.<\/p>\n

So now I’m stuck with two coats, and if I’m late into work this morning, it’ll be because of the coat choice.<\/p>\n
