What I'm Wearing: Tweed, sparkle and suede

I'm considering time to time to post things from my closet that I've sewn... that I actually wear daily!  And also how I mix them in with RTW!

Here is my Vogue 8601 tweed riding jacket that I made 2 years ago!
I was always a fan of the cut of the jacket with the tails.  And I love that I decided to add the suede details to the collar and the elbow patches.
I wore it with a sequin tank for a little daytime sparkle and a pair of mustard suede pants that I've had in my closet for years.  And a pair of brown suede and ponyhair leopard loafers.
