Derek actually picked this army jacket up in Venice. It’s an authentic Italian military jacket, but quickly made its way into my wardrobe. I can see myself tossing it over a flowy dress, even distressed denim shorts come the summer months. Right now I’ll be styling it with my boyfriend and torn jeans and basic tee. It’s the perfect layering piece for fall and can easily take me from day to night. This jacket is one of my favourite pieces. With a little vision and creativity, I’ll be able to create hundreds of looks with this jacket.
