What are YOU wearing?

[threemeninaboat]

Now that the family is going together to see the YSL show, the phone calls have begun.
"What are you wearing?"

Through high school I wore a YSL men's black velvet smoking jacket almost every day. I found it at the thrift store for $5.

About 3 years ago I gave it to Brian. It fits him. I believe at the time I stressed the importance of this particular piece.
I called and asked if I could borrow it back for the show. "One of my ex roommates has it, I think...."
".....It's okay.... Just ask around... It's totally not the end of the world... no one died... I only spent $5 on it...."
I google it to see if I could possibly afford one these days, we both scream.

After a week of looking HE FOUND IT!!!! and brought it right over.

I think my brother may be wearing YSL as well, presumably from the thrift store.

i think smoking velvet is probably bad for your health.
