Novara Leather Jacket . S.W.O.R.D

And just to get it all out of my system while it's relevant...I love this one too. Though, were I to choose between yesterday's Veda jacket and this one, I would have to choose Veda.  Its classic lines and delicate look are different enough from my black leather jacket to guiltless-ly rationalize my { fantasized } purchase.

Max Classic Suede Jacket . Veda

Prior to my smarter purchase of a goes-with-everything black leather jacket I had been lusting over nude colored leather jackets { lets be honest, I still am }.  How perfect would they be for warmer days with cooler nights?  I'll answer that for you...perfect.

PURCHASE PROFESSION FRIDAY

I had my eye on this amazing little spring/fall { for those of us unfortunately on the East Coast, but fall/winter/cool-year-round-nights lucky enough to be on the west coast } number ever since I spotted a picture of one of the Olsen twins { don't judge, I love them } wearing it. I think it was MK if I remember correctly. Trying to be the responsible Misses to my Mister that I am I stocked it and then watched in horror as it became sold out after going on sale. To my surprise { and literally what I took to be a sign form the Gods } it came back...on sale...in my size { also a sign: there was only one left in my size }. I threw caution to the wind and ordered it with one swift click of a button { that's a dangerous little feature }. In my defense { my Mister } I am ALWAYS cold and have already worn it { and loved it } a ton + I got free shipping!

Funny, my timing lined up just perfectly with the trip my Mister and I took to Los Angeles last week where I needed a jacket but not a down parka that even the fur lined attempt-at-cute hood can't save from frumpville . It was, in a word, perfection.
