Narrow Escape

I have this plain brown turtleneck that I actually really like. The problem is that while it's clearly cold-weather clothing, it's really thin fabric (not a sweater) and so I can't wear it without a jacket. And the easiest, most fashionable jacket I have to wear with it is my brown corduroy blazer, which is almost the exact same shade of brown. And makes me look like Annie Hall or her counterpart, Diane Keaton, on a bad day. The problem is I always seem to forget about that until it's too late and then I end up on the street looking like a bad ad from the 80s.

I'm proud to report that I escaped that fate today by grabbing, instead of the brown blazer, my red coat from my backseat as I left my car to walk to work. Booyakasha.
