The Sleeveless Coat

Have you ever gone shopping on a serious mission to find something that you have in your mind, only to spend 4-5 hours not being able to find what you came for? I feel like this happens whenever I go with a specific type of item in mind, that I haven’t necessarily seen anywhere recently, I just know I want.
