The entire Maison Martin Margiela line for H&M that launches on Thursday.

Sadly, these pieces will only be found in major cities, so that wipes my chances clear off the map.

HOWEVER! I have called in Swedish reinforcements. Maja, designer of my wedding dress and handbag maven, is going to make an attempt at nabbing me this jacket on Thursday morning in Stockholm. I haven’t been able to shake my desire ever since I laid eyes on the puffy, oversized, down gorgeousness a few months back. Not only is it insanely cool, it is also insanely practical for Vermont winters. Curse those Angelenos who will get dibs on this beauty with absolutely no need for such an item in their wardrobe, ever. Much like umbrellas and Uggs.

For you lucky dogs in metropolitan areas, get thee to an H&M Thursday. Meanwhile, I’ll be in a country field, twitching with jealousy.

Shop ’em: 1. Down Coat; 2. Dress; 3. Leggings; 4. Shoes
