Omg, such a good mail day today! I have been in love with the
Vince Leather Scuba Jacket in grenadine ever since it first came out! It's such a beautiful shade of red, and I've always wanted a nice red jacket. But I was waiting for it to go on sale. Then it disappeared for a while! So I thought it was sold out and I missed out. Then I saw it on Nordstrom Rack's site on Sunday, on sale for $409, and I swear my fingers never clicked fast enough to buy something lol. My order shipped from So Cal so I got it today. I already have like 5 Vince Leather Scuba jackets, but I seriously wear each one all the time, so I don't feel like I'm wasting money getting another one. Plus, the red color is SO different from the rest! I'm just super in love with it.
I got it in the exact same size as the others, which is XS:
This color is seriously the perfect shade of red!
I almost always wear these jackets unzipped, but here's how it looks zipped up half way:
Side ribbed panels:
So the difference between this version of the Scuba jacket vs my other ones is that this one is 2 pieces stitched together, so you can see a horizontal line across the lower half of the jacket. I'm not sure why Vince started doing this on the newer Scuba jackets. I prefer one piece of leather, which is probably more expensive to make. But at least it's not very obvious that it's 2 pieces and I love the color so much that I'm not going to complain too much lol.
Anyway, the dress I am wearing with in the above pictures was also delivered today. It's another
DVF Valencia Dress and I got it brand new with tag on ebay for only $100 bucks. I really love the fit of the Valencia dress. It provides better coverage in the chest, and there's slight ruching in the waist area which gives a slimming look. I love this "Flames" pattern. I can definitely wear this dress to work or on a night out.
As usual, this is size 4:
So, speaking of dresses and cleavage, I've mentioned before that as much as I love DVF wrap dresses, they usually are cut too low for me to feel comfortable wearing to work without anything under. I also don't like wearing a tank under because sometimes you can see the outline of the tank, especially if the tank rolls a little at the bottom. So the only option is to wear a full slip under the dress and that's annoying too lol. But when I was browsing the Nordstrom Rack site, I saw these
Lace Bandeau tops by Joe's Jeans and thought that's the solution!
They come in sets of 2, and I got 2 sets to have all the different colors covered. I can't believe they retailed for $80 per set. Glad Nordstrom Rack's price is only $19 because no way would I have paid $80. So the 2 sets I got are: Black/Orchid, and Red/Pale Gray.
I was debating whether to get size XS/S or S/M. I ended up getting XS/S because I was afraid a bigger size would slide down. The XS/S seems to fit well even over a pushup bra, so I'm pretty stoked about it. The only thing is that it is pull on style, so you do have to struggle a little bit to get it on/off. But I think these are such a pretty and easy way to solve all my dress cleavage problems and all of a sudden I have way more dresses that can be worn to work lol!
