The Jacket

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
Jacket: vintage, Tee: UO, Leggings: UO, Beanie: H&M, Boots: Payless (lace-up)

Here is the debut of my new leather jacket.
I see so many possibilities for it and I've been wearing it non-stop for the past few days. It's really a relief for me that it fits because the last leather jacket I ordered on Ebay ended up being a bit tight in the shoulder.

I'll have to try wearing it with ripped stockings and plaid like Alice:
(minus the crop top because no one needs to see that lol)


Or with a long black dress/skirt like MK:
(I've really been wanting to try out the maxi length even though I know it's not practical in this rainy weather. I actually have a long brown DKNY skirt, but I'd rather try out a black one first.)


I'd also love to pair it with some leopard or lace a la Desperately Seeking Susan
(Just re-watched that movie and I recommend you do the same!)
