i found this jacket in the motherload, tags still on.
i've always liked this "military" style, but couldn't get myself to wear it in a conventional way, with jeans and boots, for fear of looking too, well...military.
without inspiration, the jacket sat in my closet and
eventually made its way to the motherload.
i was determined to wear it this time around, and finally something sparked when i saw aria in the latest
episode of pretty little liars.
she was wearing a similar jacket with a long
patchwork maxi skirt. hmmm...me like maxis, i thought.
and this weekend, while standing in line to pay for my hangers, i spied this dress.
it was a maxi, it was patchwork, and it was floral.
let's just say this is the spring version of aria's fall outfit.

Love the floral print of your maxi dress. The jacket is incredibly great! that can easily wear with any type because of it's nude color.
