I just adore this 80s denim jacket! Yesterday, I went to the thrift store and spotted this fabulous piece. As soon as I saw it, I had a moment. The type of moment when you see something that makes your heart skip a beat; and you say to yourself, "I have to have it"! While literally running to it. Yeah! That moment. I didn't care whether or not it was too large, or too small. I just knew I was going to make it work, and for five dollars it was perfect.

Usually when wearing a bold statement piece like this, I often tend to wear something reasonably plain with it. So I opted for a pair of dark blue high waist jeans I got from the foreign exchange along with the belt, and paired it with a bright colored crop top.

If you're like me in anyway, then you would feel completely naked without accessories. So by adding an insanely dope necklace, an out of this world bracelet and a fierce clutch. I thought this would definitely give my outfit the vintage-ish look that I'm going for.

I felt extra confident wearing this gorgeous denim jacket. I thought, of course its appropriate to wear a pair of bold heels to match. So, I dug deep in my closet pulling out a studded pair of heels (That I had forever!) to complete this ensemble. Then I was good to go.

Ha! Don't I look like I could be one of the chicks from the early 90's television show, "In Living Color". Till next time!

Keep it Street!
