Just Another Leather Jacket?


Each leather jacket has its own personality, or at least mine do. This beauty (a very very vintage Pierre Balmain) caught my co-worker's eye when we were all wandering around the store after we had closed for the day, waiting for management to finish their paperwork, and he insisted that I try it on. I was instantly in love. The asymmetrical zipper, the wide collar, the super-cropped length, and a pervasive smell of 1980s leather sealed the deal, and I knew I had to bring it home. Plus it was like $4 with my staff discount. Talk about your perfect love affair. Most people find this jacket a little odd, but I can see it's a diamond in the rough, and my closet just wouldn't be complete without it.
