A loud jacket is a great way to liven up a simple outfit. This trend has been seen on many runways including the Gucci Fall/Winter 2017 runway.
The best part about this trend is that you can really use it to express your personality. There hasn't been a particular print that has been the 'It' print, so you can really pick anything you like.
I found this trend for a steal at a consignment shop called Plato's Closet. This store is unique because if you bring in clothing they will pay you 30% up front of what they would sell it for.
The jacket I found was in a current favourite colour of mine, dusty rose, with accents of gold. The moment I picked it up I thought "this looks so Gucci inspired, I have to have it."
Brand: Lili Petrus
Size: S
Sourced: Plato's Closet
Price: $12.00
The best part is it features a hook and eye clasp that has been incredibly in style as well.
Now before this find I hadn't heard of the brand. With some quick research I found that the brand is Tuscan and began in 1996. The brand does not have a website of their own, however I found some pieces on Ebay selling for around $200.
Brand isn't very important to me especially when it comes to thrifted pieces. I can't wait to style this with an all black look and nude booties!
