          Spring Jackets…what to look out for
          February 27, 2020

          My mood is pink!

          February 4, 2020


          I have the feeling I want to wear pink….it may be the gloomy weather, but I suddenly want to find a shade of blush to wear. Not the baby soft kind, but the hot power shades that liven up the skin and add a kick to neutrals.

          I bought my first pair of brown trousers in years just last week, a proper mud brown that reminds me of wartime land girls and pink is the colour to lift them up from farming workwear.

          New Look Balloon jeans, £25.99

          They are a cotton balloon style, easy to wear, with a high waist that needs to be shown. Tuck in at the front or wear with a very slim fit top, and belted to optimise the small waist.   Being a little picky for a £25 garment, the back pockets are too high but I often think that with denim designs. I’ll be in flats by the way.

          Add the pink…. Less fuchsia, more hot candy!

          Woolovers cashmere/wool crew, £55

          Hobbs wool blend cropped, now £39

          French Connection cotton rib, now £30

          Boden cotton blend V, £50

          Hobbs fine cashmere, now £99

          And here are a few ways to wear it….designer level, Dolce & Gabbana are doing with leopard, selling on Farfetch.

          And inspiration on Pinterest, as ever, a great source of new ideas…

          See by Chloe, A/W 2019

          Don’t let the dull days get you down, think hot with humble to get the balance.

          Enjoy your wardrobe K x

          Moving through my forties I've gained confidence to believe in 'style over trends' - quality wins (most of the time) and not to take it all too seriously. A great jacket is always my motto, and I like to play about with old and new and mix in some craft ideas too. I work with lovely clients who want a concise wardrobe or a unique outfit for a special occasion. I hope to inspire you.
