There are definitely those people I look up to fashion-wise – one former coworker is one of those. Even when fully pregnant, she was fashion forward yet sporting an achievable look. So when I ran into her the other day, I couldn’t help but notice her brown leather(ish) bomber. When I asked where she snagged it, she fully admitted that is was a clearance find last year from Target (yes, them again).
It set me on my quest to find my own, something I had been thinking for some time, even searched for a little, unsuccessfully, but this time was different. I first visited Forever21.com, a great source of all things trendy yet inexpensive. Found a brown one for just $32 which I promptly ordered. It’s on it’s way now.
But then I conned my shopping-adverse husband to let me run into the Kohl’s in upper Mount Pleasant on the way back from Pawley’s…and there I found a ruffled collar, angled front zipper black faux leather bomber. It was a must have at just $20 – or so I thought. My day was made when I got to the register and the checkout girl first asked how the heck I found it, because she thought they were out, and then proceeded to tell me that is was $7!
Unfortunately for those of you who want to grab one of these, I probably got the last one. But don’t despair, there are plenty of leather(ish) bombers out there to be had.
