I have been doing a "Spring Jacket Series" and so far I have shown you three jackets: a Blush Jacket, a Brown Jacket, and a White Jacket.
Today, I have a Silver Metallic Jacket on, except you would never know it by these pictures because it looks white. But trust me, in real life, it's a metallic silver. This jacket was a gift to me from my husband years ago. I remembered when I first opened the box and saw it, I was a bit stunned. I wanted to be nice and encouraging for he actually went shopping and picked something out for me, something I've wanted him to do for awhile. But at the time, I wasn't sure I liked it. I thought it looked and felt like a spaceman's suit. I wasn't as into fashion as I am now, so I was really unsure how to style it. So I googled "How to wear a metallic jacket" and I got lots of ideas and ended up really liking this jacket.
Because this jacket is a metallic silver, it actually goes with just about anything, just like a silver purse or silver shoes go with anything. I think the first time I wore it with black skinnies and used it more as an indoor blazer in winter. Today I used as a spring jacket and paired it with a dark denim pencil skirt (Old Navy) and a blush T-Shirt (old, Express).
The blush top has a chiffon neckline and silver rhinestones on the sleeves. I thought the silver rhinestones echoed the silver in the jacket beautifully.
Shoes are by Nine West (old, Younkers).
Have a Great Day! Amy

Cool barn even though it may be a bit creepy!
ReplyDeleteAnd I really like the jacket! Silver is definitely unusual, but I can totally see how it goes with about everything! And even more special since your husband picked it out!
Have a fabulous weekend!
Oh, and I really like the shoes!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I like the barn. There's something cool about taking fashion shots near old, dilapidated buildings. A juxtaposition of sort. Second, your jacket is nice. Good you kept it.
