Last year I thrifted this awesome royal blue, wool coat from a thrift store in Austin, not knowing how excellent the wool choice would turn out to be this winter. It's a classic piece that is also fun and bold, from the bright blue to the angular cut of the shoulders. There were hideous buttons on the coat when I bought it, looking like something out of the Flintstones, but I quickly remedied that with toned-down, circular ones. I may look awfully like Pebbles, and I love leopard print, but I don't have to dress like she does. ;)
I paired the coat with neutral leopard print leggings, an airy chiffon scarf, leather boots and gloves, and my new cross-body purse. Luckily, these pictures were taken a day before the blizzard.

You don't look very happy in any of your pictures. Do you not like that particular shade of blue or is that your "urban smolder" look??
ReplyDeleteWell actually you have to keep your expressions to a minimum in these frigid temperatures, otherwise the wrong one might freeze on your face, hahaha. Thanks for reading, Dad. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe jacket has a little hint of 80s power shoulder pads, which is nice!
ReplyDeleteThere's definitely some of the 80s in that coat, which I love! Great decade, hehe.
