Have you ever seen a "look" in a magazine, an advertisement or on TV and thought, "Oh my gosh, I love that entire outfit and I want it!!"? Well, I did that exact thing the other day when I received this e-mail from Piperlime:
. . . I fell head over heels in love with the look on the left with the red maxi dress and white jacket. So of course I clicked on "Shop these looks" to see what kind of prices I was dealing with and imagine my surprise when I realized I pretty much already have this exact look in my closet! Why it took seeing them separated, I don't know, but I certainly have a dark pinkish red dress (not quite maxi length, but it's close), a long gold chain necklace and fabulous brown summer heels (they aren't slings, but that's not the point). . . all I'm missing is the jacket! So, today, here I am with my White Long-Sleeved (because let's face reality here. . . I already have a white short-sleeved summer jacket, please don't tell my husband!) Summer Jacket Wish List so I can complete the "look" I practically already have :) I even made this incredibly simple by sticking within the Gap Inc. Brands!
1) Last weekend my sister-in-law rocked her Express (Minus the) Leather Motorcycle Jacket and it's AWESOME and it comes in ivory. . . sadly Express doesn't have it available any longer so Banana Republic's Heritage White Leather Motocross Jacket will have to do (yeah, like that's real sad). 2) I have your basic denim jacket, but I refuse to wear it with jeans (I wear it with dresses like in the "look" - are you starting to see more and more that I "need" this jacket less and less, once again, please don't tell my husband - lol!) so why not have Old Navy's Distressed Denim Jacket in Bright White? 3) I'm a sucker for a boyfriend blazer and this one is just gorgeous - Elizabeth IV Blazer from the Elizabeth and James Slick Suiting Line, available at Piperlime. 4) And you already know that I want the actual jacket from the look - London Leather Jacket in Warm Beige by BB Dakota, also available at Piperlime.
Wow, no idea why I'm so sarcastic today. . . I guess I'm feeling ornery ;) Happy Friday!!
