'The [Mannequin] Doth Protest Too Much'

I'm not at all above disrobing a mannequin who's wearing something I NEED; especially when that something is sold out otherwise.  This green vest from Old Navy was one said article of clothing that the mannequin and I fought over. (Other instances have resulted in a mannequin being knocked over and another lost its arm because she wouldn't let go of a jacket).

This time, no one was hurt, and I didn't get caught (sometimes, stores won't take the item off the mannequin due to display...yada, yada, yada). I artfully ducked around the sales person, hid behind the sweater display and pulled at the vest inch by inch until it came off!

Have you guys ever bullied a mannequin?

A couple of you ladies asked me how I mimicked the Zara leather arm jacket in this post. I did so by just combining an old leather bolaro beneath this Old Navy vest, et voila (see it worn with my Alexander Wang vest here)! I chose not to sew it because both pieces are separately great for layering. Sooooo glad I didn't donate it to the Salvation Army!!
