the jacket project day 27



Calvin Klein yellow rain jacket/coat with hood. I had a dream about a yellow jacket similar to this one. On my way to lunch at Nordstrom’s cafe the next day, I couldn’t ignore the vibrant yellow in my peripheral vision. I love its big silver buttons.

This shot was snapped by my husband. He told me to visualize a cute, soft little duck. Then he slapped his hand down on the imaginary duck. Smack! no more duck. He clicked just in time to get me with this shocked expression. Have you seen the Audrey Hepburn movie, Funny Face? Then you’ll get this reference. If you haven’t seen it, you need to.

This jacket is by Community from Aritzia. It’s made from renewable hemp, which makes it a perfect Portlandia jacket. If you’ve never been to an Aritzia, you must check them out. Super cute clothes (although a bit on the spendy side).

Aritzia has the best sales ever, and I happen to be there the minute this jacket was discarded by another customer in time to snatch it up at 80% off its regular price of $200.
