A horse named Opera... and my new leather jacket

You know how some thrift stores like Goodwill have "specially priced items"? Well I was hesitant about picking up this brown leather jacket because I was pretty sure that it had been misplaced and had a $20+ tag attached to it somewhere. Not to mention I saw another customer with it earlier, why would she put it back? So I decided to take it to checkout and see what happend. 
$6 happend!  Score.   
 Yesterday I decided to wear it with some brown leather boots that my mom bought me years ago from JcPenny.

While I was at Sugga's Thrift Boutique in Buckhead, this guy rode by with his horse and it became a photo moment. This gorgeous horse's name is Opera. I can't explain it but her name was so fitting. You would have to see her in person to see what I mean. I petted her before I got on because I think it's kind of rude to just hop on. I mean I don't know anything about horse riding etiquette but....

The size of the horse was crazy...and she was solid! I just can't get over how large she was...it sounds weird but it's crazy being close to a living thing so much larger than you. Its kind of humbling.

Outfit of the Day

Today It was sorta gloomy outside, but a nice temperature. 
I was probably the brightest thing in the city even though I was wearing tones like mustard yellow, burgundy, and olive green. I also accessorised with leather pieces just too keep it from being too plain and summery. This look was super easy and comfortable for running errands and going to work.

  • wooden disc earrings, leather tassel necklace-Angie's 
  • headwrap- market in NY
