Jacket: hand-me-down
Rogue Wave t-shirt: purchased at concert (2008?)
Shorts: H&M
I could list you a dozen reasons why the jacket appealed to me (and 10 years later, still does). Here are just a few:
- I was immediately drawn to the rich colors--navy blue and red being two of my most frequently-worn colors.
- The quirky use of plaid
- The cartoony flowers and shiny, painted buttons
- The even cuter rows of red buttons along the shoulders
- It's warm
- It really doesn't require many accessories to 'make the outfit'
- It reminds me of my grandma herself, because she was a quilter.
While my mom has a tendency to poke fun at my ensembles, my grandma always said my style suited me. (I like to think it was a compliment.) This jacket reminds me of her every time I wear it.
