BURNT

I do not like domestic work! and that reads like an abomination for an african girl of marriageable age. However, it is what it is.

I'm telling you this, so you finally understand why some of my outfits might look rumpled. Also because something obviously inspired the name of this post and its not the burnt orange background in the pictures.

that is just a coincidence.

I found this jacket in one of my many vintage hauls for the store and immediately fell in love.

I knew it was event appropriate but I now had to look for the appropriate event.

After a few weeks or month I finally found one and decided to straighten the jacket a bit with an iron.

At first touch, it melted nicely from a kiss by the iron and an astonish me went back to thinking on a million reasons why I hate to iron. One of it? Definitely getting your clothes burnt.

I had to cancel the event that day and stayed home because it was so obvious.

The DIY experimentalist in me switched the overlap and changed the buttons and now i have a weird looking but still perfectly beautiful silver jacket, That I would never be able to gift out except if burnt pieces become trendy.

So yes this isn't its real face but its still very much a bad ass Silver Jacket and the length was decent enough for me to wear a wrap skirt under and tastefully show off my thick legs.

I'm wearing a Vintage Jacket from HDHQgoods, a black thrifted sandal and a vintage wrap skirt acessorized with a vintage bag.

I didn't even realise that this is a head to toe Vintage outfit.

All in all I love how mature it looks.
