The “Skunk”… Part I

This delightful black and white graphic print faux fur vest (swoon) has been labeled, “The Skunk” in my home.  What I believe to be the most compelling addition to my wardrobe in months, nay I say, years, has been ridiculed and taunted since its arrival last week.  Even the dog, Lavyndyr has decided to get in on the fun, pretending as if this coat is her long lost cousin.  And once again, I find myself justifying a fashion choice.  You may remember me having to justify the abundance of denim jackets in my closet in this post here to The Spouse.  And I haven’t heard any more about my jean jackets since that post.  Well, the time has obviously come again.  I vow to wear this vest for 4-5 days to prove to The Spouse that this is a versatile, albeit very fashion forward article clothing that will prove more classic, than trend…
