summer jacket

I am unapologetically girly. I always have been, and I always will be. But first, to clarify, girly is not to be confused with high-maintenance. I am, by no means, a poodle, and I assure you I can "get up and go," but boy do feminine frills make my heart swell. Ruffles, lace, bows... the works. 99% of the time I would choose a dress over jeans. Hands down. 


Well, a few eeks ago when I walked into Gap, this most perfect jacket stopped me dead in my tracks. It is one part military, one part safari, and is the perfect alternative to my tradish cardigan. Can't find it on gap.com but here are some cute alternatives. 

Top to bottom: J. Crew $98, Old Navy $34.50, Gap $24.99

Side note: Mine looks just like the J. Crew jacket, but in the color of the Old Navy one. :)
