I found this vest a few months ago at Goodwill and smirked when I noticed the GAP branded buttons. GAP was totally the cool brand for a minute back in the day. Do you remember those GAP hoodies everyone was obsessed with? Man, times have really changed.
A friend who is a pretty rad designer suggested I patch the crap out of the vest and now I can't stop thinking about doing it. Thoughts?

lady, you look so gorgeous and this picture is soooo cool!
i totally remember when Gap was the AA of today. remember their fragrances?- something to the effect of grass, and clouds...or i don't know what- they were so basic and 90's.

i think i like it as is! layer over leather and you have your own personal wang jacket;) xx
haha, i DO remember those days.
And the funny thing is, I happened to randomly pop in there just today!
great vest, i think it would look great if you did pretty much anything to it...it's a great blank canvas. i just noticed i said "great" 3 times in one sentence. wow, what a diverse vocabulary i have.
Ahh the Gap...fond memories of how people were really doing it when they had that sweatshirt on.
LOL.
You should customize the hell out of that...patches or whatever else.
I think patching it up is a spectacular idea!
that vest is such a perfect and basic piece that you couldn't do much to mess it up! good find!

I like it as is... with the hair and make-up in the pic too. You look gorge!!
GAP is def going through an identity crisis... they totally didn't grow with their customer bases and now are trying to catch up by launching their designer collection... if there is anyone who can revive GAP it would be Alexander Wang, I guess we will see...
your skin is gorgeous! what products do you use?
I like it as is, maybe some bleach though!
You're so gorg! The patches would kick it up a notch!
I love this denim vest! They're something I would love to be able to pull off, you look great!
My Uncle used to work at Gap when he was at University, he bought me a lilac hoody with a glittery GAP logo, at the age of about 8 I thought it was rad, haha.
xo
Definitely patch it. It'll look so unique. Or add gold studding to it!! Or both!

Try some little badges/buttons the ones with bands names and stupid sayings or even get those studs everyones is going crazy about. gold ones would look awesome.
awesome vest. i kinda like it plain, but you should patch it up if you can't stop thinking about it.
oh & you mean those gap hoodies (and tees, and non-hooded sweatshirts...) that just had "GAP" across the front?
yeah, totally remember those =)
hahaa i totally remember those hoodies. they were so popular but someone started saying GAP stood for gay and proud so they kinda died out :P
i think that my pink fleece gap sweater was pretty cool, thankyou very much!
haha, i dont know maybe just distress it a bit
Hey Geri! I think I would come to your blog more if you did more outfit stuff about you. I like the inspiration photos but it is you that I adore and that is why I am addicted. LOL.

sigh, I had a NEON yellow gap hoody, I was nu-rave before nu-rave existed. Although I was like 7 and an albino and it looked pretty odd. x
That picture is so beautiful! I don't know if you wear a top, I would say a long dress, that jacket is really nice with it!
