REFLECTION

While I sit here and plan for 2017, I have to reflect on what a year 2016 has been; I mean there’s no way I can’t right?!

2016 has been quite a dark year over all; the world lost a great number of legends throughout the year, as well as the many wrongful deaths of innocent black people, not to mention the next President of the United States (he who shall not be named).  It’s been depressing to say the least.  Personally, this year hasn’t been all roses, but as I’m a glass half full kinda gal, so it hasn’t been a bad one.

So I have this jacket, I found it while vintage shopping with my aunt; and I believe it is the single most complemented thing I own, or have ever owned!  It’s a Spalding NBA bomber jacket, the idea is that the jacket looks like the Spalding basketball; and it really does, the leather has been perfectly textured.  Dressed up and dressed down, it is everything!!!
