3 New Ways to Wear Your Bomber Jacket for 2017
Every so often there is a trend in the fashion world that becomes SO popular that we actually start getting sick of it. Last year’s IT-item, the bomber jacket is a perfect example of this phenomenon. The bomber jacket grew to popularity overnight and it quickly morphed overnight to be in every store you could find.
