Private Mac



I’ve been looking to add an authentic army jacket to my closet for years, but I refused to dish out major bucks at the Army Surplus store.  Luckily, a few months ago I came across this beauty at the thrift store.

It was just hanging there…waiting for me.  And the bonus was it was only $ 4.00! Can you believe that price?

Did I mention how much I love this purse? I’m carrying art work on my arm!


Next on my wish list is to find some decorative navy pins to go with my navy pea coat for the winter.

What I Wore
Dress as skirt- Target
Army Jacket- Thrift
Shirt- Jcpenney
Sandals - Target
Purse- Susej Designs
Watch- Michael Kors
Bangles- Thrift, Forever 21

    Oh, I am with you. I've been wanting an Army jacket too. The last one I saw at my local thrift store had a hole in the back. I was soooo disappointed. Still on the hunt. You look so cute.

    @ Luci Lui, Thanks girl. We need to be on the lookout for the pins so we can jazz up the pea coats!

    @ Roni, Thank you for the lovely comment. I can’t get enough of the cameo look. I just bought another cameo jacket at Old Navy….the price was right!

    @ Kiah, Thanks. I love this bag too. I want to carry it all day everyday! LOL

    @Thisladybehaves , Thank you. They had a clutch too but I choose this one because I could carry more stuff.

    @ Fitz, Looking for to the feature…can’t wait! Thanks for all the support!

    @ Sacramento, Thank you, I’m a big fan of your blog. You’re so fabulous!

    @ Manecourse, Keep looking your jacket is out there waiting for the right time to show up. In the meanwhile Old Navy does have some for 50% of the clearance.

    @ PS, Thank you for the lovely comment. I will check out your blog!

    @ Inez, Thank you gurl! :)

    @ LA Lynn, Awww you made my day! I’m sending you a big hug and thank you! I will definitely check out your blog!
