We are supposed to get a big ice storm this weekend, so I had to run some errands today to ensure we were stocked up in case of some power downtime.

This meant I had to go to the mall, so I stopped by COS to see if they had the sculptural black dress that I included in a capsule a few weeks back.

It has been living rent-free in my mind so I wanted to try it on if it was available.

It wasn’t which bummed me out because COS has a 25% off code for the next few days which can be used in-store and online that I wanted to take advantage of.

And I still want to take advantage of it, but I’m not sure what size to get and it’s not easy doing returns to them when you live in Canada.

The code is COSFRIEND and will work until the end of the month, so I have time unless it sells out.

I really wish they had it in stock in the store.

Sigh, I don’t actually need a new dress, but it was a good example of the one-and-done type of dress that I was talking about in yesterday’s capsule.

I could wear it all spring and summer for a variety of occasions.

Nevermind, the code only works in the US so I’d have to do the whole use Shippsy thing and I am not sure if I want to go that far.

I will think about it.

Also, how cute is that knit jacket with the fun buttons? We all know that I love an interesting button and this one caught my eye.
