the jacket

by Karen Blanchard
8 July 2011
Jacket + jeans: Vintage/Thrift.  Bag: Vintage Coach (get new here. I got mine via eBay). I wear this style more often.  Leo heels: ALDO (I’m on a strong leo kick at the moment).  Similar heels here and here.  Shades: Ray Ban.
All thrift/vintage – accept the cheap leopard heels and the Ray Bans.
The jacket was bought months ago here and I still can’t get over it – I like the scallop edge. The oversized mens jeans are from a Salvation Army – faded and baggy.  The heels were to balance them out.

    This will be an incredibly gravid resourcefulness that you are rendering and you pass on it away for free. I relish seeing websites that be aware of the value of rendering a prime resource for free. I truly enjoyed reading your Wiley Post. Thanks!

  45. Malù says:

    Amazing look!

  46. Catherine says:

    Your hair always looks magazine-perfect!

  47. Paula says:

    Awesome looks. I love this style too 🙂

  49. Karen says:

    Anguillagal – ha! doesn’t it just feel good to cut boots and give them a new life? 🙂

    Fashion Chalet – your the one that has to make the change to curly hair and THIS I must see.

    Julie Khuu – no they really don’t hence buying vintage is still the best.

    Catherine – trust me it’s not

    Wow I saw a jacket similar in my country, but I felt that’s was too much for me, when I asked for the jacket, people watch me like I’m like a old girl, but the next time I’ll not feel scare and I buy it.
