Notes:

I’m on a trail. I’m wearing a blazer. So I’m…brace yourselves…a trailblazer. OK, that was admittedly weak. But wanna know what’s strong? The price I paid for this corduroy jacket: $2.50. That seems to be the magic number lately. It’s easily one of my favorite blazers in terms of fit. Also, did you see those darling dart details above the pockets (in picture #2)? I should mention too that I’m in love with these new-ish jeans of mine. They are the Long and Lean cut from Gap and a total throwback to the 1970s while still being casual Friday appropriate. I have not found such a flattering and comfortable pair of denim pants in years. Be warned though, these flares do run large. I got a size 6 and they get loose, especially around the waist, after a few minutes of wear (thus the belt-wearing). Then again, with all the holiday eatin’ I’ll be doing, extra room might not be such a bad thing.
