This is an FFBO that you've probably seen before, but I wanted to show you guys my new jacket and purse.

The jacket (yet another blush item for this summer!) is a linen/cotton blend moto that is perfect for summer. I've always admired the lovely blush leather motos that many people on this forum have, but they're not practical for me because they're too hot for summer, are impractical for indoor wear (by me at least), and are hard to clean. So this soft, lightweight fabric version is perfect for me. It's actually a junior's style, but surprisingly nice given the low price. Sometimes juniors jackets work better for me anyway because they tend to be shorter. I was worried it would be a little too sweet given the color and lace detail, but I think the moto style counteracts that just enough.

The bag is a MZ Wallace that I've been stalking for a while, so I think it was just meant to be when I spotted it at the Rack last week! (It's actually still full price at regular Nordstrom, and was a one-off at the Rack because it's missing the dust bag and coin purse (neither of which I need anyway). This is a direct replacement (and upgrade) for an ancient black nylon crossbody that I use a lot on weekends, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it can actually fit my lunch bag so long as I don't need to bring a ton of other things, so I can use it for work as well. When it's full, I prefer to wear it as a shoulder bag rather than a crossbody though. I already used it all weekend as well!
