Vince Leather Scuba Jacket in Black! ~ Vince Camuto Dacoma Pump in Hurricane Gray Pearl Patent

I got a second Vince leather jacket! I love the first one I got in charcoal (though really looks olive in person) so much that I decided I NEEDED it in black! I didn't really want to shell out the $995 + tax price tag for it though, so I kept an watchful eye on ebay. They get listed there once in a while, and normally sell for around 1/3 - 1/2 of retail new with tag. So I finally got one! It's not the paper leather version like my charcoal one. It's thicker and a little more substantial. The leather has a bit more sheen, but still on the matte side. Otherwise the design is the same though. This is the one I got. I love it!

Yes, I do realize all my jackets are basically the same style - kind of cropped, fitted moto style with the side zipper thing going on. What can I say... I just love it I guess! The Vince jacket is kind of like the leather version of my new favorite Caslon cardigans. :)

The jacket I got on ebay had a slight tear at the end of the zipper pull though, which I of course knew when I bid on it. After I received it, I took it to Nordstrom to see if they could get it fixed, and they did... for only $10! They didn't ask for receipt or any kind of proof that it was purchased there. I happily paid the $10 and have no complaints. They glued the leather as well as put some reinforcement stitchings on top. It is the little "X" next to the zipper pull. You can barely see it in person:

I actually tried this exact jacket on at Nordstrom before I got it. So I knew what size to get! It's the same as my other one - XS. I tried S too, which is way too loose for this style and looks frumpy on me. This is obviously a shorter jacket and not really meant to be worn in super cold weather.

Here it is on me:
