HOW ADMIRAL-BLE. Navy/military-inspired outfit for 2/10, such a long time ago. And that was the day before it happened. It was very cold and even snowing, so thanks again JJ for braving the snow and meteorological indecency to capture this quirky ensemble. Nautical or marching band, I can't quite decide. Either way it's been a longgg while since I've worn this military jacket because it's kind of difficult to style. It's relatively thick and bulky and wraps across the chest tightly and hides the neckline. Wearing it open doesn't seem to be an option because the flaps are simply too big. Popped on some mustard yellow tights and riding boots and we're good to go. Now I just realize that it's horizontal stripes from neck to knee, how interesting.

Bright berry lips cheer me up no matter the weather outside. And no, that isn't dandruff - it's snowflakes in my hair. Happy March, y'all! I'm 22 in 2 days. Isn't that cray? P.S. writing this at 2 AM makes me a little crazy and finally getting back in the swing/mood of posting outfits :) I'm taking it day by day. Thanks for all of your love and sympathy ♥ it really does mean a lot!

Very Sgt Pepper -- dont worry if you don't know who that is. I don't either. I just know he must have worn military jackets. Or, how about very ColdPlay? Hehe. Anyways, love the photo effect of third photo and that facial expression! Happy to have you back!

i never imagined a military jacket paired with a striped skirt AND mustard tights but you kind of pulled it off, its an interesting take of mix and match.
p.s your boots are fab, love the color
