Lise, thank you! I can’t tell you how soft this jacket is! And we have either hot or cold weather here, so as much as I wanted the fringed jacket to work, this jacket will likely be more useful.

The weather is like that where I live as well. Only my puffers and warmest coats get tons of wear. My lovely leather and suede jackets have such a short weather appropriate window that sometimes they get no wear in a year even though I love them. I have to stop myself buying more of the same when I see them in thrift stores at great prices.

The Edelman jacket looks yummy! Perhaps these boots will satisfy your desire for fringe:

Lise, yes, I wear warm jackets all winter, and then suddenly start wearing shorts and sleeveless tops.

Roberta, I love those boots! I wonder if my stupid orthotics would work with them? I hope you realize I won’t be attending the fringed jacket meetup anymore. But I hope you will post lots of pictures!

NYTimes article about Ozzy Osbourne’s style had this picture

Ozzy 's first wife used to make his fringed jackets for on stage.

Lise, I didn’t know that! Although I was never a fan of his music, I saw the family’s tv show a few times. He came across as a good father and nice person.

Your final pieces are lovely, they look so cozy for fall and the colors are soft and soothing. Excellent wardrobe additions!

Lisa, thank you!
