Vintage Leather Jacket Part 2



 Hi everyone! This week I am showcasing my dad's 70's leather jacket. When he was 21 years old he saved up his salary to buy this camel leather jacket back in 1976. He too as my mom in my previous post (you can read here) has kept his jacket in pristine condition. I love wearing it even though the sleeves are a little too long for me. By the cut of the jacket I am amazed at how thin my dad was back in the day.



Dad's Leather Jacket; Black wet look tights from Mr Price; Lace top from Jay Jays; Teal heels from Zando; Star Necklace from Mr Price; Gold Earrings from Zando; Ring my own.

I teamed my dad's jacket with black wet look tights and a lace strappy top for a more rock n' roll look. To add glamour to the outfit I added my gold star studded necklace and gold leaf earrings. To break the black I wore teal heels for a playful pop of colour. I love wearing this look at night at a party or out with friends for drinks. I love that no one even suspects I'm wearing my parent's clothes, hehehe.



A BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY MOM AND DAD!!!


They share a birthday today and have been married for 34 years. Whoop!:-)
