I've never purchased clothing from Amazon, your jacket is very nice and I like it with the white pants.  I'm too chicken to buy clothes on Amazon in case I need to return the item.  I haven't owned light wash denim in ages, probably in the 80's, lol.  

 

Anyways, now I'm debating about buying that Costco jean jacket in the lighter denim, it's not quite as light wash as your jacket.  Not that I need another denim jacket, but with Costco, you have to buy it when you see it, otherwise it's gone.  And I can return it to the warehouse if I change my mind.


@River Song 

I've been afraid to buy Amazon clothes too, especially the brands I don't know. I felt more comfortable buying this jacket since Lee is a brand I know, and it had good reviews. 

 

I don't own much light wash denim either. This jacket is only my second piece. I also own one pair of light wash jeans. I prefer medium and darker washes of denim. I think they're more versatile for dressing up a bit and darker washes are more flattering on the legs. JMO. 

 

I chose to buy my jacket in a light wash because I own so many dark denim jeans. I'm more likely to wear a light wash jacket with a dark jean. Not sure I'd ever wear a dark denim jacket and a dark denim jean together, even though that seems to be a look some are wearing again.

Thank you for the kind words.  I feel bad for not posting on here, I have a lot of fun doing so  I have fallen way behind, and I can't seem to get caught back up.  I have posts created, but still require a lot of finishing touches, and now I'm a bit overwhelmed for being so far behind.  I very much miss doing posts.  THe outfits you all post are equally as enjoyable, and I often get inspiration myself.

 

I've been accepted into law school, which I will be starting part time starting this fall, two nights a week.  I've also been planning a romantic weekend for my boyfriend's 30th birthday, which will occur in two weeks, so that's a big part of why I'm behind.

Thank you for your kind comments on my past post.  This community does give me a bit of motivation; I may have just skipped some of my draft posts, partly except for that, now I feel too far out to be relevant.  THough I enjoy sharing the outfits.  I'll be back in some form, sooner rather than later I hope.

 

I'll continue lurking around here, as I've been, as I, too, enjoy your outfit posts Smiley Happy

So wonderful to "see you"!  

I am so very happy that first, you are alright.  We all take care of each other and are a long distance "family" that you are a part of.

 

I am thrilled that you are beginning law school!  I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed preparing to teach.  Just take a day at a time, you can only do what you can do.  No doubt that you can balance a career and a life.

 

Your BF is very lucky to have you.  If he is the one, he is very fortunate to have you!  

 

Looking forward to you dropping in!Smiley Happy

Congratulations on law school!  In college the law classes were always my favorite, i never had enough confidence to pursue that career though.  I ended up working with mainframe computers, lots of people found it boring but I loved it and playing detective to find problems,, just retired last December.

Alyssa!

 

Contratulations!

 

I (and others) are so happy to know that you are ok and doing very well in your goals.

 

(I had been somewhat worried about you.  Hearing that you are in good health and doing well is a huge relief to me and others.)

 

Wishing you continued success.

 

Best wishes to you and your BF. !

Re: Outfit of the day, if you dare!

Hello ladies!  I was dead tired last night after closing, so you get 2 outfits, yesterday and today.

 

A fav white top because of the white in white design, and a Habitat tunic.  White cotton capris.  Turquoise beeds for color.

To day, I had on A Michael Stars navy linen jacket, my top is blue and pink/violet floral, navy capris.  Hand carved nightingale in ivory.

 

I was disgusted with myself for forgetting a light wt. denim cargo jacket which would have been better!
