Seeing Double: Yves Saint Laurent/ Zara

Despite my too-large-it's-ridiculous collection of leather jackets/bombers/ trenches (yes, I have a leather trench), I have come to the realisation that enough will never be enough for a shopaholic/hoarder like myself.

In my spare time (i.e time that should be spent studying) I like to browse the Harrods website-as you do. Soon enough I found myself swooning/ salivating/ almost-crying-with-longing over this YSL leather jacket.

Cue the jacket!


This beauty comes with the hefty price tag of £2,950. In other words- 'f*cking hell!'

You can imagine how my heart skipped a beat when browsing Zara  I came across this......


Prepare yourselves:


How could I not bring her home?

There are several things I love about this jacket:

  1. Made from the softest, butteriest lambskin I have ever felt. I swear, this leather is better quality than my Armani jacket that sure as hell cost a lot more. 
  2. The detail on this piece is beautiful and subtle, giving it a much more expensive feel. I would definitely assume this was designer if I saw a girl wearing it on the street.
  3. It is very light- an essential when it comes to jackets for me. I am very slight and petite and generally find it very uncomfortable to wear heavy jackets for more than an hour or so. 
  4. Finally, it only set me back £149.99! ( seems like alot but for leather of this quality I was very happy to hand over my card)




All in all, this girl is very happy !

This jacket was made for summer. And since the English weather is borderline pathetic most of the year, I had to pounce on the opportunity to wear it here in Korea. You would think it is difficult to style but it's quite the opposite as it would look great colour blocked with any of the colours on the jacket.
