So Long, Suede Jacket

Another week, and I'm eyeing all those backwards hangers - not a ton of them, but still a few. I built this outfit around this suede jacket, which has been languishing in the closet.
As you probably guessed from the post title, I'm letting go of it. I have lots of good memories, but it doesn't ring my bell anymore. 

  • Suede jacket - Danier Leather, vintage 80s, consignment; last worn way back here (3rd outfit) in October 2024 for our Hallowe'en party
  • Sweater - Papillon, thrifted; last seen here in January with leopard
  • Velvet skirt - Rachel Roy, thrifted; last worn here in November 2025 with gold and brocade
  • Boots - F-Trip Warhol, Fluevog; last seen here in November 2025 with a red sweater dress
  • Sleeveless coat (below) - Only, thrifted; last worn here earlier this month

It's snug, has no pockets and I just never reach for it. 
"Reach for meeeeee...."


I did my best to give it a good work outfit send-off - I like this outfit overall. 
"I love you!"


The sweater is just a boring cream one but the velvet skirt is gorgeous. And the boots! 

Incognito! 
I liked the orange bookends.

The stuff: 
Great wavy grooviness! So awesome. 

  • Hat - gift from Tammy
  • Brooch - Monet, vintage 80s, vintage fair
  • Fur scarf - thrifted
  • Leather gloves - Roeckl, consignment

Gold and black bling: 
Barnabas photobombs me in the morning, but Whateley is my constant companion at night. 

  • Necklace - Monet, vintage 80s, vintage fair
  • Earrings - vintage fair
  • Gold-tone bracelet - thrifted
  • Lucite/gold bracelet - Alexis Bittar, consignment, Sidney
  • Brass rings - vintage mall
