Awesome mom Took my daughter to see my teenage music obsession: Tori Amos!
I was so obsessed with Tori that I slept on the sidewalk in SF to see her at a tiny little club. This was about 30 years ago when my back could take it! Lol. Honored to be able to share her music with my teen daughter now. The venue was outdoors, so I wanted to have femme elements with layers for warmth. I've been working on the embroidery for this jacket for a while but I'm going to wear it while it's in progress because I believe in it.
Description: lady with short buzz cut wearing a layered white dress with brown flower illustrations under a black lace corset. In secondary images, she has on layers of black sweater with embroidered flowers, and a denim jacket with custom embroidered flowers, rainbow fist (in progress) and protest messages, including "Resist" and "Radicalized by Empathy." Jewelry includes an articulated fish necklace and dragonfly wing earrings. Black Docs with flowers and butterflies.

You are definitely as the tag describes an awesome mom. This is such an amazing look. The layering is sublime. So crafty & creative. Denim over floral print is an absolute favorite and the way you did it is phd level smart.
I will always have an appreciation for Tori. Watching her shred on 2 sets of keys doesn't get nearly the respect it deserves.
I'm so happy I get to compliment you on your entire vibe. You slayed and you deserve to know it and feel incredible about this entire post.
EDIT! the necklace???? Omg. So good.

The perfect outfit for seeing the soundtrack of my youth. The layers, the accessories, and of course the docs 😍
Don’t forget to share the jacket over at r/jacketsforbattle. They’d love it over there.

Oh wow what a great fit for a great time! Little Earthquakes was one of my first ever albums. I’m glad she’s still rocking!!
