Old fashion? Oh no, darling... Show me some creativity



Those were the exact words of my mama when I said that this old yellow boy is so Old Fashioned and that I didn't see myself ever walk in it.
Wasn't I the person who hated yellow? Positive. But I'm creative and I lóve to try things out. A couple months ago, my mama tide her old stuff up. And ofcourse I was asked to help her with that. To my surprise I found a lot of stuff that she definitely should not throw away. Like this Hip Yellow Jacket. My mama was a true fashion addict. Just like me, but a little more I guess.

To be honest... I didn't really rocked this jacket at first sight. I kept staring at it, put it away, staring, put it away, staring, put it away... And still staring while it was lying somewhere with the old stuff that would be thrown away. But finally, my mom couldn't stand it anymore. 'You keep looking at it! Whether you take it, or you leave it. Make a choise.'

That was when when I decided to take it. I wasn't really sure if I would ever wear it, but I was more afraid of the fact that I might regret it later, if I did leave it.

And, yeah... well, I hanged it in my wardrobe, and it hanged there for like five months.It wasn't until a week ago - when I actually didn't had anything to wear (you know about this ''girly trait'', right?) - that I decided to wear it. At that moment I had to turn on my creativity and combine this old fashioned jacket with something that would give it a more modern look.
So here is what I eventually did.


You can see how casual this outfit is. And I think that this old fashioned jacket can only be worn in a casual way, if you want to combine it with nowadays fashion.
Notice that the hijab I'am wearing completes this casual look.The texture and the color of the hijab give the outfit a playful and creative look. So do the funny zippers on the jacket.

Hmm... after all, I might like this jacket. I think I am going to wear this old fashioned boy more than I thought I would.

Much Love
