As you can see, I have a new item on this week! My CHANEL BLAZER!!! EEEP! I alluded to the purchase in this post revealing my Burberry Prorsum dress. This was definitely a really lucky find at Roundabout Resale. I paid $400 for it...can you say AMAZING! After some research I found that it is from Autumn 1998, it's amazing how a classic item really can stand the test of time (duh, that's why it's classic.) Needless to say I am obsessed and can't wait to wear it more!
I have also decided to try and wear all my blazers over the next few weeks. It's such a shame that they don't get as much wear as I would like, but they make it difficult to wear coats and those are definitely a necessity in the city. But I'm going to suck it up and wear them, even if I have to carry them while I walk! ;)

That Chanel blazer is lovely - what an incredible purchase. Wearing blazers under jackets can be a bit of a pain sometimes but I find you get used to it if you just do it a few times....

"Eeep" indeed! Love the utterly timeless nature of Chanel. What a beauty you found.
ReplyDeleteOh little crocodile brooch gives so much life to the vest! I sometimes feel sorry for not wearing my blazers that much, think it's a great idea to force myself to wear them! Happy weekend!
