An Apology to my Jacket






Target sunnies,old jean jacket, Lulu's crochet dress (worn as top) hand me down belt (Thanks Beccah!), ASOS crinkle skirt, Pacsun cutout heels.

Happy Hump Day!

Let's talk about my jacket.

Probably about 5 years ago, I took this jean jacket out of my closet and put it in the give away pile. Somehow, it kept ending back up in my closet, and I'd find it when I went to purge my clothes of all the bad shopping choices I had made that year. 
I finally left it at home last year when I moved out and told my mom that anything left in the closet was giveaway.
What did I find when I moved back home?
The jean jacket. 
Suddenly, it wasn't a cast off shopping purchase from 5 years ago, but an old and valued friend. I was overjoyed to find it hanging in my closet, just as loyal as ever. 

So I'm sorry, dear Jacket, that I haven't always valued your durability and versatility as well as I should.Believe me when I say that we are turning over a new leaf in our relationship.

And thanks Gadzooks, now turned Forever 21, for making one single item that can actually hold up for 5+ years. Why can't all of your clothing be like Jacket here?

Tutorial on my hair coming next week!
