The story of this jacket dates back to a few weeks when I suddenly felt the urge to own a metallic, preferably gold, jacket in my closet. My search took me far and wide ( a couple of malls to be precise) but nothing worked. The jackets that I saw were either in sequin that were way too gaudy for what I was looking for or either too trashy looking in their faux metallic fabric, until my eyes met this one. It was love at first sight and even better- it was on sale.
I had to have it and ever since I bought it I have already paired it with this dress below, this super-fun jumpsuit and this gingham skirt. It is a statement piece without being too over-the-top. For reference I am wearing my usual some small. I’m sure this bomber is going to be my summer jacket of the year.
Bummed, my jacket is sold out, but the gingham version is still available and I’ve have linked some similar options below.

It's a beautiful look with or without the jacket! The gold is a nice color to add as it complements the black and red in your outfit.
