The Pom-Pom Jacket
Hello my recessionistas. Am I correct in thinking you all would like to hear about some cheap and chic goodies to add to your closet? Lately, I have been hunting the Gap, Tarjay, etc., to find those little treats to fill out my closet and mix playfully with my more expensive pieces. I firmly believe that a high/low mix lends itself to both a truly idiosyncratic style and to a realistic wardrobe. Based on this philosophy, even if I could afford to buy every piece I own from Prada (and Vera Wang, and John Galliano and Viktor and Rolf — a girl can dream can’t she??) I would not. So, off to Gap we go!
While shopping with a client last Friday, we came upon the little jacket that is pictured. So much bang for the buck on this one, priced at reasonable $69.50.
Pintucked Jacket: $69.50
The charming little pom-poms remind me of the tops from Chloe a few seasons back. While the shape is one of a structured jacket, this piece is made from soft, flexible, 100% cotton so it is as comfortable as it is cute. This jacket has enough look to go to work over wide leg trousers, or out to dinner with a skinny jean and heel. Mix it up!
