Happy Monday friends! I’m fresh off a weekend at home in New Orleans celebrating one of my best friends weddings. Even though the weekend was so much fun & such a success, there were moments when we were all worried it might not be! Hurricane Nate barreling towards the gulf coast so late in the year was unusual – since when are there hurricanes in November?! – but eve though we were all crazy with nerves about potential flooding, road closings, and city wide curfews, the storm ended up passing us all together and we were able to party and celebrate the bride & groom to all hours of the night with barely any rain at all! I always have so much fun at home in New Orleans, but especially so when all my old friends are back together in the same place and celebrating two people we all love so much!
As for this look, this faux suede jacket is even dreamier in person. I scored it during the Shopbop sale when it was under $80, and although that sale has ended, the Friends & Family sale over at Bloomingdale’s is still going strong, and the jacket is fully in stock in 3 colors for $79! The suede feels so luxe and the drape is perfectly slouchy, and I know this will be a layer I wear time and time again this fall & winter. I love the black version so much, I’m tempted by the gorgeous tan color. I’ve paired it here with my favorite blue jeans & silk tank. An easy look for a date night, or switch the Louboutins for little black flats and this look easily transitions into day!
