I have been looking for a Leather Jacket that I can wear on the weekends running errands and out at night which was harder to find than I expected. I landed on a suede black leather jacket by Blank NYC which is seems almost every blogger in the world has. I bought it in size XL and I think it fits perfectly, so it is true to size.
I purchased the black one, but Nordstrom currently doesn’t have the exact one I got, but they have it in burgundy on sale for the same price I paid for the black one.
If you can’t find the one you want on sale through Nordstrom, you can find some great Blank NYC jackets at Nordstrom Rack:
My first impression was that it was heavier and more rigid than I thought it would be, but after trying it on with a couple of outfits it already started to loosen up. I love the look of this jacket and how it elevates all the outfits I tried with it.
I started with looks with t-shirts and jeans
Then I thought I’d get fancy and add button down shirts to see if it’d work (I think it did).
I tried it with a cable knit sweater and while the picture ended up way too blurry, it was surprisingly comfortable.
I ended with dresses, and I really think dresses with a leather jacket is going to be my summer look. It really balances looking cool and edgy and feminine and sweet.
