YES SPRING HAS ARRIVED!!!! The season of Bright Arrays!! Blinding Neons!! Seamless Nudes! & Adored Pastels…….RIGHT?! (BLANK STARE) OF COURSE YOU FEEL THIS WAY..UGH!!

A jacket of this magnitude slaughtered the statement piece law. There’s no room for any other criminals to compete. All black was the way to go, the perfect criminal attire. Premeditated, the work had to be chic. High-waisted bell bottoms and a fitted turtle neck, real slayish. This mid thigh length coat robbed eloquence with its accomplice high waisted bell bottoms.
