For Christmas when I was thirteen, I unwrapped a gift - a jacket - that I ended up wearing for more than a decade. It doesn't have the heavy, ink black canvas, cropped sleeves right for arm warmers, and brassy snaps that this lovely Tulle Clothing jackets does. Nor does my old jacket have heavy duty zippers, deep pockets and a thick ribbed hem like this jacket. However, I wore my old jacket all through high school and college in all weathers. I fell in love more than once in it and made snow angels in it. Quite quirkily, I also wrote letters to my old "Jacket." While these letters are more like creative journal entries, they've stayed with me because of the memories I recorded. "Remember dancing down Fifth Avenue at two in the morning, Jacket?" It still fits me well, but it has retired to my closet, frayed and faded. "I have found a new love. I'm sure you'll understand," I write to my old jacket now. A lover of outerwear, I can't pass up a sharp new walking coat like this sassy one. A high collar that you can pop on a blustery morning and fold down in the afternoon, a double pull-tab zipper that opens to a Springy floral print liner - the jacket I envision for my next ten years. "Lots of love to ya, old Jacket. P.S. I can't wait to see what I'll experience in this new one!" -Angela, Fashion Writer
