Wear the hat Monitor.I was just thinking earlier today now I'm now doomed with not being able to switch to leather pants altogether because I can't wear leather pants and a cross zip and I can't wear the hat with leather pants and maybe it's best to just leave it at home if I'm wearing anything else leather. But it's such a cool hat! Well, it will find it's use next summer, once the jacket season ends.
Here is my latest arrival, and honestly probably my first "big" purchase of a leather jacket, a Vanson CHP2. I tend to be a frugal person who thrifts a lot of stuff, so this was a new change.
I have been searching for a CHP style jacket for a couple months and was not having any luck. For the past couple weeks, I had daily search updates for ebay, etsy, and poshmark, with several brands. Finally I typed in "Vanson Leather Jacket Craigslist" in Google and this popped up on the other side of the country. Seller was willing to ship it to me, and it arrived yesterday. Fits really well, and I am very excited to wear it more, especially as we get into the colder seasons.
