Barbour for Life

Barbour may not be made in the USA, but they are made for life. There is nothing more fair than investment pieces that will last a lifetime, and a Barbour jacket is exactly that.

As long as you take good care of your jacket--getting it re-waxed when it needs it, for example--your Barbour coat will be functional and stylish for life. I recommend adding the hood accessory and the woolly lining for winter so that the coat can transition from fall to rainy slush to winter with ease.

I promise you that this post is not sponsored in any way by Barbour, I just think their coats are timeless and fair, especially the waxed canvas men's version that I'm wearing now.

Black and Blue and #BSG {Wednesday Wants}


navy and blue jacket by jason wu

Nicole Miller, blue and black, sci-fi dress, made in USA

Nicole Miller, blue, BSG six red dress, made in USA



Much like the August post featuring items for my Dream Vacation Home, these are investment pieces for the Dream Life that goes with it.  I have been ogling all three of these items for weeks now, so it only seemed fair to share.

By the way, I know it's not just me noticing that the blue Nicole Miller dress is totally a tame version of Six's red dress from Battlestar Galactica, right? Riiiight? If you don't know what I'm talking about, please see this high-quality photo of me pretending to be a cyborg next to said red dress (aka Rachel being a crazy BSG fangirl).
