Quest Completed!

Leather jacket purchased!  First, let me clarify by saying that I purchased it a few months ago at Nordstrom's Anniversary sale.  So....this post is a smidge late, but relevant all the same, because I'm still abSOlutely obsessed.  Plusssss I've been searching for a leather jacket for over 2 years (I'm a little bit of a perfectionist), so a month or two really isn't that big of a delay in the scheme of things.

 BEHOLD!  The Veda 'Max' Leather Jacket!

It's amazingly versatile and ohsofantastic.  The collar can be zipped all the way up for a futuristic look (think Aeon Flux), or folded down for a more subtle look.  My second favorite feature?  The fabric panels on the inside of the arm! They stretch to hug your arm for the perfect fit.  

There are a variety of colors and finishes, though I got mine in a buttery black.  Find your perfect match at Nordstrom, or one of these alternate retailers...

According to Webster, I Need These!

I was recently browsing Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale when the most perfect shoes to exist.  EVER.  I present to you Valentino's 'Ascot Corset' Voice.  Need proof?  Please see exhibits A and B, below.

The polished leather and timeless shape make the boot a classic choice.  But the bow detailing on back is what pushes it over the edge into the land of i'mgoingtocrymyselftosleepatnighteverynightifican'townthese.  Population me.  Now, according to Merriam-Webster, a 'need' is a physiological or psychological requirement for the well being of an organism.  Um...Check?!  A condition requiring supply or relief?  Double Check.
But alas! Perfection comes at a price.  $1,495.00 plus tax to be exact.  

So please excuse me while I curl up into fetal position and pray for the mother of all sales.
