my latest acquisition in jackets.
THE military jacket, complete with patches and all.
mini-he said i was like a security guard. in his head, security guards are equal to police, and police are equal to soldiers [because they both carry weapons], so i'm ok with that.
it all started with the desire for a simple olive parka, but "parkas" ended up being too long...most coming down to my knees. so my olive parka search morphed into olive jacket, and that brought me to this one. it's lined making it a good buy and a bit warm. eh...blisters, sweat...there's always a price to pay for fashion. i find myself wearing it with my favorite leopard + stripes combo. check out how my fellow hawaii fashionistas are rocking their olive jackets: fashionation street, elisharon.

What a great jacket! My husband is in the military and my oldest son always dresses in camo so I'm sure they would approve! This combo is stellar!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool jacket. You look super tough, but in a hot way. I love that leopard bag you added to this outfit.

Incredible how you look amazing in this type of slouchy military jacket... but if I wear it, people start calling Homeland Security!
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit! Love this mix of army jacket, stripes and leopard!
