Jackets

The wedding is starting to feel very close now, so I am moving ahead with, well everything. My latest (besides music, food, and invites) is what I am going to wear, since Megan has been taken care of for months now. Well, at least she owns the dress!

I scoured the internet last night looking for some things I liked, regardless of the cost. And really, I dislike almost everything. It doesn't help that I really don't like suits! Everyone just wants to be James Bond or a mob boss in all the photos, and it is an aesthetic that I just am not into. So, I found some things that are a little different, and mostly made of things other than wool or cotton. Since I am planning on having the shirt under the jacket do most of the talking, the jacket just needs to be simple yet interesting.

More of a real Jacket than a suit, from travel smith. $$
A silk "soft jacket" from Neiman Marcus. $$$$$
More standard, but I like the lapels $
Bannana Republic wool and linen $$
J Crew linen 3 button. I am liking the linen. $$
Neiman Marcus velvet blazer. $$$


In all, I love the really expensive silk jacket, but practically I like the J Crew one too. Not sure how it would work with a nice shirt though...
