A weekly feature where I wear something that a motherly figure in my life used to wear, but which I have stolen borrowed. The descriptions will be fact, fiction, and not a lot about fashion.
Who: my mother
What: yellow polyester jacket
Wear: black skinny jeans, black flats, grey sleeveless turtleneck
I pulled this jacket out from the back of my mom’s closet. My mom says that this jacket is from the 80’s, and that it was always too warm for her to wear.
The jacket is warm, but the warmest part is its bold yellow color. I was expecting someone to call me Big Bird all day, but no one did. I even prompted the question by asking “Don’t I look like Big Bird?”
“What? No.”
Quite disappointing.
Next time I might wear it with orange stockings.
