Today I Want: Tweeeeeeed

MICHAEL Michael Kors Four Pocket Tweed Jacket, $175

I don't know when I decided I loved tweed.  It must have been sometime in college where a lot of my professors fit that oh-so professorial and wore the tweed jackets (with elbow patches!) to school every day.  It wasn't until after college, however, that I realized that tweed comes in a variety of colors and patterns.  Or, perhaps, I had just never been exposed to such varieties.

Since then, I've already acquired one (vintage!) tweed blazer (no elbow patches, sadly).  However, I'm on the hunt for more.  I want suit-type jackets like Chanel's because, let's be real, everyone admires Madame Coco!  Just a little out of the price range, however. But this jacket is a nice substitute.  And it's by Michael Kors whom I think is amazing and I really want to be his friend.  And own all of his bags.  I'll even just take shaking his hand once. 

Do any of you own tweed?

HAPPY LONG WEEKEND, AMERICANS! For everyone else, HAPPY REGULAR WEEKEND!
