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.

I Hate Motorcycles

...but that's not about to keep me from loving these moto boots!  The only issue is that I may have a condition that makes me love expensive things.  Seriously.  It's an sickness.  :)

Jimmy Choo Short Biker Boot

I tried these on at Nordstrom last month and it took all of my strength to take them off.

Rag & Bone Moto Boot

I love that these don't have the traditional buckles.  It's a minor twist that sets them apart.

Decisions decisions...

Just One More Reason Kate Spade is My Fave!

I love Kate's twists on simple, classic silhouettes, and this is no exception!

I saw this while I was browsing through Nordstrom and instantly fell in love.  It's that perfect bag that you can pick up an carry immediately with any outfit.  And, like all Kate Spade bags, it has a touch of personality on the inside.

Black too boring?  It also comes in red, tan, and white!
