Outfit of the Day: That Anthropologie Jacket

The light has changed and with it goes my perfect little spot of photography wall. I really wanted to show y'all my new Anthro jacket but these photos...aren't the greatest. You know what? Too bad. I am going to show you anyway! Here's my boring outfit:


This is all Banana Republic. Skinny jeans from the Zero Gravity line that I really like and a black tank similar to this one that I've had for a few years.  My shoes are red Lotta clogs but they're hard to see. Now, the jacket


Hooray! It's the Odyssey Draped Coat by BlankNYC and it's great, isn't it?  It's faux leather on the back and sleeves and faux suede in the front. It drapes beautifully and I seriously can't tell you how soft and stretchy it is. Like a cardigan but with jacket structure. Yay.


I'm sure you're wondering what it looks like zipped up? Listen, I'm not super crazy about it zipped and probably won't wear it this way, but here you go:


See what I mean? Not terrible but definitely better all open and drape-y. And yes, I haven't taken the tag off yet because it's too hot to actually wear it out. Here's a close-up: 


It's going to be such a great transition-weather jacket and best of all, it's an outfit-maker! Meaning,  it's the kind of thing you can throw over the most basic of basics and suddenly look all pulled together. I really recommend checking it out. For similar styles, check out this other BlankNYC jacket with a knit front or this edgy version from Swat Fame.
