<p>When I ordered this faux fur coat from ASOS online, I had high expectations. Online shopping and I have a love hate relationship because I am more of an in store shopping kinda girl. Online shopping seemed to get one over on me yet again when my initial try-on of this coat didn&#8217;t live up to said expectations&#8230;.because more of a Chewbaca vibe ensued. C&#8217;mon I have seven brothers, I know who Chewbaca is. In fact, I can&#8217;t tell you how much time I spent in front of the mirror trying to create twin Princess Leia buns with my never long enough hair. The good news is after trying to make this coat happen for the third or fourth time, it has finally grown on me &#8211; chewbaca vibes and all. (This below freezing weather doesn&#8217;t hurt either..)</p>
