Winter/Fall Clothing…?

So, winter and fall clothing. I arrive in Canada probably late September. According to a friend there, the weather in September is still a little warm and it gets cold by October.

Coming from a tropical island, I am not used to too much cold. Haha! I love the cold when we go up the mountains during December, but the lowest I experienced there was probably 10 degrees C. I did experience San Francisco cold last October, I’m just not sure how cold that was, but let me tell you this, I was DEFINITELY freezing! Then again, we weren’t that prepared for cold when we went to the US last year cause our San Fran trip was only layovers, coming and going back. All I brought then were thin clothes, good for walking. I just brought a couple of long sleeves for San Fran, but they didn’t work. Haha!

This time I think I know where I am going. I mean, Vancouver will be my final destination, not Florida. So while I was telling my grandmother about me getting my visa and leaving next month, we came to the “clothes” part, specifically the coats. She then got up and told me that she had a couple of coats that might fit me.

We time traveled back to the 1970′s when coats are made-to-order here in the Philippines. The first coat that got out of the closet was the brown coat at the back. It’s leather up front and the lining inside is F-U-R and I LOVE it! For me, it’s perfect for winter, I’m just not sure if it’s enough. The other two are good enough probably for the fall weather? I don’t know. Haha! But I love the green coat. At first look it looks weird, but when I wore it, I fell in love with it.

So, my mom’s order not to buy coats here, well, that’s still there.. But the thing here is, I didn’t buy these.. I borrowed them.
