Truthful Tuesday

It's no secret that I tend to shop my feelings. (And eat them, but who doesn't?) So I'm sure you're all wondering what I bought to make myself feel better when Romey left. Well friends, I bought something I have zero need for at the moment, but hopefully will be needed by next summer. Fingers crossed.
I got a new show jacket! I've been really curious about the AA Motion Light jackets for awhile. I know Olivia from Hellomylivia has one, and it looks awesome on her. None of my local shops has them. Also, I've been lusting after the green one which very few stores carry. I saw them on sale on Instagram, but alas, it was sold out in my size and color preference. When I inquired, they said I was out of luck on the sale price as they wouldn't get more before it ended. Some other nice person private messaged me where I could find one. Low and behold, it was on sale! Only $20 off, but they're not overly expensive to being with. So I bit the bullet and ordered one. Pretty silly since I don't show right now. But I really like it! I'm going to share photos, but it looks too small in the pics. I tried it on in a hurry over a heavy rugby shirt. It fits perfectly with a show shirt. The color is most accurate in this first weird photo.
This is the most awkward photo...


I like how the wrinkles from shipping match my fat wrinkles... Ugh.
I should have grabbed some photos to show you the material. It's actually mesh, and seems like it should totally be see through, but it's NOT! This isn't a review post though, so I feel less guilty. If I ever get to show in it, I'll write up a review after wearing.
Do any of you have this jacket? What color did you pick? Do you wear it in the hunters or do you think it's just a jumper coat?

    Ooh, interesting. I've never heard of them before. I'll be curious to see what you think of it after you get it out and about a few times. Looks nice though!

      Me too. And I hope that's sometime before they go out of style!

    The first time I saw the black one I thought it had to be completely see through. What a crazy optical illusion they are. I'll still probably never get one though because they have too many holes (I don't like looking at things with too many holes)

      It's so holey. When I opened the bag it came in I was kind of not excited about it. Then I put it on and really liked it. It's really light weight.

    Oh I really love it! <3 I have been wanting to upgrade my bargain bin show coat (maybe next year) so that's good to keep in mind :)

      I'm really surprised how much I like it! I still really prefer the more traditional coats. But this one is really nice, especially for hot summer weather.

    I found one on Amazon for $75!! I don't know what was wrong with the server that day! Mine is the blue/greyish one. Is that green?

      Wow! That's crazy! That blue-gray color is so pretty, good choice! Yeah, this one is hunter green.
