Why yes, yes it is. Seriously.
My mother went through her mother’s clothing last September after she passed away to see if she could find anything to give to us to remember her and thank goodness because I have gotten some really amazing pieces from her (other outfits with her clothes seen here and here). I miss her each and every day, but this coat reminds me of her and it makes me smile! I love vintage clothing and to have pieces from her to remember her by… honestly I couldn’t ask for anything better. Have you had clothing passed down to you? I plan to pass this on to some important women in my life someday.

Super cute! What a fun pattern – love finding hidden jems like that. My roommate got all of her great aunt’s costume jewelry and it was full of fabulous pieces
great coat, Love the color.

i love that the rest of your outfit is neutral and really lets the coat pop. Your Grandma had excellent taste!

What a wonderful coat! It’s a great way to remember your grandmother too! I have a piece of my grandmother’s jewelry, it is a nice thing to have.
How great is this? I have a few pieces of jewelry from my Grandmother and I love to wear them. It’s so comforting to have a family hand-me-down like that.

I definitely started singing a line from “Trift Shop” when I saw the title of this post haha. I wish I had clothing from either of my grandmothers…I do have a lot of gorgeous jewelry though!
Haha YES! I’m so glad
I love that song so much!
You look stunning, and that coat is amazing. I love the rest of your outfit as well.
Ooh that coat is gorgeous!!!
I don’t have any clothes that belonged to my grandparents but I have some that one grandmother made. And I have some clothes my mom made too

What a nice coat – your grandmother has style!!!
Some of my favourite clothes are passed down through family. They hold the test of time, and I think of the person every time I wear it – what could be better!!??
It looks wonderful on you – I’m sure your grandmother would be so happy!

Haha, I’m also singing “Thrift Shop” after reading this post
What an awesome coat!!! My grandma died almost 3 years ago, and I’m slowly inheriting some of her things (coats, purses, jewelry, etc.). It’s so fun to have pieces of her with me!!!
That’s a lovely coat! Your grandmother clearly had impeccable taste in clothing. I’ve had a couple of articles of clothing passed on to me. Unfortunately, I can’t wear most of either of my grandmother’s clothes – I’m too tall for one (amusingly, since I’m pretty short…she just managed to be shorter) and too curvy for the other – but maybe I’ll be able to pass some of the lovely pieces both have/had onto someone who will. The ones I do fit are definitely a treasure.

I would have never guessed. How cool is it that you can wear something that has been passed down from generations! Love the color and pattern, pairing it with taupe was a perfect choice!
