With the arrival of spring weather, this post made me realize that now is my perfect window for wearing jackets. I have several, but usually prefer simpler, un-layered looks, so the jackets take a back seat most of the year. But right now, it's too warm for cozy sweaters, and too cool for summer shirts. But jackets are perfect.
So I pulled out my leather almost-bomber jacket that reminds me of Amelia Earhart and thus makes me smile and earns it's keep. I tried it three days in a row.
#1 over white and blue (just reversed from the post)
#2 with blue jeans and stripes
#3 over a print-mixed black stripe tube skirt and ditsy floral. I liked this one the best laid out on the bed, but the picture is correcting my notion that it was really great :(
#4
Today a different jacket came out to play - a sunny orange that was asking to be combined with dark red. Before I left home, I subbed out the clunky home-shoes for retro summer shoes in an almost-nude tan. I'll take a picture next time I wear them, I promise.
All feedback is welcome - I'm excited to be giving my jackets some love - thanks for the inspiration, Angie!
