The Holiday Jacket

blazer

Did I mention our international potluck was supposed to be an ugly sweater party? Because it was and, while only about six people participated, I wore this gem I scored at the thrift store. I didn't get great outfit shots, which only means I'll have to wear it again. It's maroon velvet with glitter embellished bows and gigantic puff sleeves circa the 80's. How could I pass that up? Wore it a bit casual with denim shorts, tights, and a white tee. Felt a little diva in it, can't lie. Speaking of divas, have you guys seen this snickers commercial with Aretha Franklin and Liza Minnelli? I couldn't believe it when I saw it!

    Would it be bad if I told you I actually sort of like your sweater? --For the Holidays of course.
