Personally, I'd vote for the first one, although I think you'd look smashing in any of those.

Meanwhile, that third jacket has me thinking about a cosplay idea I had the other day (remember the "1980s militaria" look that was briefly popular in the middle of the decade...?)

Oh yes. I mean, I blame huge, huge portions of my aesthetic on Adam Ant.

I loved Adam Ant - still do, really, although life's been rough on the poor lad, of late.

I happened to be looking through some silly book of Duran Duran photos I'd found at the used book store the other day, and - lo and behold - there as a corker of a full-page pic of them draped in braid and pseudo-captain's bars and other such silliness. Unfortunately, right after the giggling died down, the damning words fell out of my mouth "I really should do that, some time..."

God help me if I come up with another 1980s live-action RPG idea... ("Big Brains, Skinny Ties" was bad enough!)
