The Trials of my Life...



Tweed overcoat, tartan shirt, v-neck sweater, oxfords, braided belt and bowtie, all vintage. Khakis, Obey. Watch, UO

I found this coat a few years ago and even though I practically swim in it I bought it anyways. I loved the huge lapels and extended length double breasted look, and the tweed... oh the tweed!

I gave it to my mom after I bought it and she said she'd take in the waist for me so that it fit better. Two years later I find the thing hanging in her closet unaltered and decided to just bring it home, haha. My mother is a busy woman so I can't really blame her lol. Plus it's not like I really need a coat like this living in Florida. I guess I just saw this and wanted it regardless of wether or not I need it, oh shopping haha.

I thought maybe if it had a belt it would work. Then I thought maybe I could add one of my own belts. This might be kind of weird to take off when I got wherever I was going though haha... who knows? What do you guys think?



Added faux croc belt and grey leather duffel, both vintage.

Oh, and here's a close up of the bow-tie. I bought it at the Hell's Kitchen flea market in New York. Isn't it sexual? Umm, I mean dignified lol
