I saw a guy with a Member's Only jacket on Saturday night as we waited in line for the Hollywood Cemetery film series. It could be one of the most distracting jackets out there. The whole time that you would like to probably hear what the person is saying, you just stand there....staring at that awful jacket. The voice in my head saying....

"What are the loops on the shoulders for?"

"And that flexible waistband...."

"The glossyness of the material....so shiny."

"The large, snap buttons...why?"

Then I thought, maybe he's wearing the jacket as a talking point. Saying that jackets these days aren't functional. Can you Banana Republic jacket hold possible Military Rankings on its shoulders? Nooooo. Can your J.Crew jacket keep water from penetrating its non-glossy surface? Nooooo. Can your Bloomingdale's jacket keep wind from entering through your waistband? Noooooo.

Whatever the case may be. Its an ugly jacket. Seriously. There's nothing quaint or eccentric about it. You're not being ironically cool. Its just awful.

Maybe I'm jealous?
