Outfit Of The Day For April 12, 2012. Textured Black.


OK, OK, OK I know I am in black again – but this time it is TEXTURED black. And I have a good story behind the Rag & Bone Vintage Lace Blazer (very textured) that I am wearing. I found this at the Intermix Warehouse Sale and they accidentally sent me a different black Rag & Bone Jacket. It was beautiful, and fit me perfectly, too. Which was a good thing because I was afraid the size I ordered would be too small for me. Now I know Rag & Bone jackets run a little big. Well, Intermix customer service helped me exchange the jacket and luckily the Vintage Lace Jacket was still available, and they even held it at the warehouse for me. So I had to wait a bit to get the correct jacket, but the silver lining is that I had the opportunity to try a similar jacket on because of the of the mix-up. If the size was too small, I probably could have received a refund, which is unheard of with regards to Intermix Warehouse items, because items are usually 75% off! Talk about “Attainable Luxury!”
