Not So Black And White

August 12th, 2010

Vince Leather Jacket, BCBG Dress, Vintage Jewelry, Coach Clutch, Alaia Platforms

After Tuesday’s post, it became increasingly apparent that it was time to invest in a great leather jacket.   I had purchased several affordable options in the past (like this one), but the thick, constricting feel made them terribly unappealing.  This Vince jacket is buttery soft, lightweight and I love that it’s stretchy enough to roll up the sleeves.  It’s great for mild nights in L.A. and is somehow even cuter when zipped up.

    Ah I need a good leather jacket so bad! Here in Jersey though I generally need something lined that’s a bit warmer…

    I love the combo of the pretty, pretty dress and the structured jacket. I love everything about the get-up, actually, and I wouldn’t mind suddenly waking up to find that lovely hair on my own head. Thanks for being a fashion inspiration!

    love, laughter, and light!
