We saw this metal duck bottle opener in an antique store, but left knowing that Small Business Saturday was coming up that weekend and he'd have a credit with his AmEx to use. Well, I went back and purchased it before Saturday. When he wanted to stop by the antique mall that weekend to pick it up, he was so disappointed that it had sold -- to the point where he was crabby the rest of the day! <br /><br />http://bedknobsandbaubles.com/ Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12642006325218487200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551650242422472428.post-43818697654640884792016-01-08T16:41:01.223-05:002016-01-08T16:41:01.223-05:00How very cool of your mom... even if she first mad...How very cool of your mom... even if she first made you "sweat" it :)<br />I love this jacket - if you ever want to let is go in the future.. let me know.Lorenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16720997862417551402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551650242422472428.post-52808807771822516242016-01-06T11:57:34.055-05:002016-01-06T11:57:34.055-05:00What a fantastic blazer!

This blazer was clearly meant to be yours, which I'm sure your mom saw when she went into the thrift store that day - I have to applaud her gift giving fake out skills! It occurred to me recently that I really don't wear blazers very much. I have one that I love that rarely sees the light of day and, if I'm honest, that might be the only one in my collection. Seeing this one on you, especially with the beautiful fur collar detail, makes me think that I really need to start to get more creative with my blazer styling - and maybe add a second one to my collection!<br />xox,<br />CeeCeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822990898186192908noreply@blogger.com
