When a piece of clothing has the right vibe, it is every bit as much of an accessory as an antique Zuni turquoise necklace or a one of a kind handpainted Celia Birtwell chiffon scarf by Ossie Clark. Of course clothing was originally created as protection but when the first savvy cavewoman realized what she had going for her when she fashioned that first bearskin bikini, well... clothing became a powerful means of self expression. Your choice of attire can tell the world about where you grew up, what language you speak, your political orientation, how materialistic you are and how confident you really feel. So scoff all you like about the superficiality of fashion but your appearance tells way more about you than you may care to admit. Most women into good design choose everything with an eye for style. From a simple thermos at the MoMA store to a vintage leather coat, it all has to have a look because the days of being purely functional have long disappeared. North Beach Leather's knee-length caramel leather coat with fitted waist and slim silhouette. Buttons along the placket with covered leather buttons, it is lined in pale copper-y peach satin. Great with hand-embroidered jeans and snakeskin boots, it is every bit as hip as it is durable. Bust measures 34", shoulder to shoulder 14", outer sleeve 23.5", waist 28" and length 42.5". Excellent condition. $520.00 |
