Score

June 30, 2012

Jacket: Zara. Dress: Jacob. Handbag: Balenciaga. Shoes: Nine West. Sunglasses: Chanel. Necklace: Stella & Dot La Coco Curb Chain. Watch: Michael Kors. Rings: Kate Spade, Ardene.

 

I am pleased to announce that my two month long search for this floral Zara bomber jacket ended on Monday (although I’m sure the only person who really cares is the one typing this post)!  It has been sold out in Toronto for months, but last Thursday (the first day of Zara’s huge sale), an entire rack of my size suddenly appeared in store.  Hey, I guess it was worth the wait because I got it on sale instead of paying full price…score!

 

Side note:  I’m leaving for NYC today, returning on Wednesday.  I’ll have a few scheduled posts, and I’m going to attempt to provide glimpses into my trip via Twitter, if I can figure out how to use it!

    That jacket is pretty amazing and so is the drop hem of your dress! Have fun in NYC and don’t forget to eat macarons at the Laduree that just opened!

    SHUT UP I love that, I am so nuts for printed bombers lately. I totally feel you on the relentless searching for one item and the victory dance you want to do when you score it!

    Okay, honestly, I am not really sure where to start with this outfit. It is phenomenal! The jacket… YES. That dress is fab, shoes, glasses, hair, bag, and on and on and on. Congrats on the jacket. So glad to have found you!!! Have a wonderful time in THE city. Whitley

    Jenny, I was on a zara Sale hunt yesterday too and the same experience happened to me with a skirt as well :-D . It’s even better when you get a favoured piece on sale that you didn’t get in your size on a regualar price base. This floral jacket fits perfectly to your elegant black dress and those chic black pointed pumps. Love it. Have a wonderful time in NYC. Wish I could be there too, my bf does his residency there :-*
