PLAYED BY PLAID.... OR TARTAN? // KRISTIN CAVALLARI INSPIRED

Exactly  three years ago, i walked into a store, spotted a gorgeous coat in the finest shade of its beautiful rich color and it had me at red, ruffles, A-lined and mid-thigh. I walked very quickly to the rack to get a closer look at it and i knew it was made for me. Just me.

Until....

I realized i was only window shopping that day and would have to come back to get the coat probably the next day. That didn't happen. A week later i made it back to this store and shock alert!

The jacket had sold out! Excuse me?

Went home disappointed. I stopped at the grocery store to pick up my fashion  and gossip mag fix. Something to cheer the fashion soul but as i flipped through the pages of US Weekly i believe it was, there was my jacket on Kristin Cavallari in RED! "Stop her!" I yelled in my head. Hahahahaha. It read something like, "Kristin Cavallari hails a cab in NYC wearing a red Old Navy coat". Oh did i mention she looked so stunning in it too.

Fast forward to two years later, i went into Old Navy hoping to find maybe a similar jacket or close. Er.. nope. So i settled for what seemed like the practical jacket to have then. It was not red, had no ruffles, but it kept me warm and comfortable through out the cold season.

I wore the jacket over the outfit in my previous post when i went to shoot and i knew i had to recreate that Kristin Cavallari moment in my not-so- red- plaid-hooded-jacket. Hahaha. Today, plaid....or tartan is trending like crazy- Apparently there is a difference between the two but i would let you all decide what you prefer to call it.

Er, while she almost stole my look,  now i need to work on my future shots for posts on celebrity inspired looks.  More to come.

Thank you all for reading. Now your comments.
