wardrobe oxygen 7 wardrobe oxygen 3I've been craving a moto jacket, but most leather jackets are just too stiff for what I desire.  Stella Carakasi reached out and asked if I'd like to try a piece from their collection and I was immediately drawn to the Discover Jacket.  Made of a water resistant blend of cotton and metal, this fabric is soft enough to flatter my curves yet structured enough to be a proper jacket.  With a cool metallic finish and black metal accents, this is a jacket that can work for the office or be a relaxed topper for the weekend.

Focusing on eco-friendly materials and sustainable manufacturing methods, the brand comes in sizes XS (2-4) through XL (16) and from what I have tried, I find the sizing to be generous.  I know many of you have been looking for sustainable fashion brands that go past a size 10; so far I am impressed by Stella Carakasi and look forward to trying more of the collection and sharing it with you!

    1. Yes! Though honestly this one doesn’t compare. It’s stiffer, it’s cut like a classic Hanes t-shirt, and it has even more crazy of washing instructions. I’ve stretched out the neck and hems to give it more of a relaxed/vintage feel.
