Spring jackets what to wear this spring

Spring jackets – what to wear this spring

Everybody seems to be excited about spring and despite all of this the weather has not been so good to us. I walk pass flowering trees in my winter coat in gloomy London and in my mind I am wearing my best spring outfit and grabbing takeaway coffee.

Well even if the weather is not giving us what we want we can still think about spring looks and what to wear. I don’t how about you but spring is one of the seasons when I love to refresh my wardrobe as London can be strange. You sometimes end up wearing your spring jacket in the summer so for us Londoners it is clever to splurge little bit on these pieces.

So what to wear this spring?

Oversized blazers and wool blazers

Oversized blazers are not going anywhere. Think YSL or Isabel Marant and million other desingers and brands that incorporated this trend to their collection. One brand I love that does this so well is Marcela London. Frankie shop is another winner and to be honest if you look at their outerwear you will see pretty much all the spring jackets I am talking about in this article. And let’s face it a good wool blazer is an investment for life.

Trench coats – Play with fabrics

This classic will hopefully never come out of fashion. A classic trench should be part of your capsule wardrobe however brands are bringing exciting cuts, fabrics and shapes. I love what the aboved mentioned Frankie shop is doing and so many fabulous brands. If you give me oversized leather or faux leather trench I will be a happy lady.

Bomber jackets

I love a good bomber jacket. I am dreaming of a YSL one but adore brands like Allsaints, Anine Bing, Frankie shop, Sezane amongst the more affordable. Of course high-street players like Zara or H&M are not behind. As a matter of fact I ordered this H&M one that is exclusive online and it looks like a dream. It also comes in black and looks so much more expensive than it is. And to be honest even both my kids have a bomber jacket so spring we are ready for you.

Cropped jackets – Play with fabrics

I love cropped jackets at the moment and you can see here why. It looks so cool and chic and just perfect for those spring days when it is not overly cold. Oh yes sometimes girl has to stay warm right? I say play with fabrics as leather is not the only option. I love tweed models, teddy fabrics, wool and more. These jackets can be fun but yes leather is a great investment long term.

Influencers Outfit Round up – Fashion Inspo of the week

Influencers outfits round up – Fashion inspo of the week

I adore doing Influencers outfits round up for you. Scrolling down for outfits inspiration is one of my favourite ways how to procrastinate. I could spend hours doing it and keep saving these in my folder. And I openly admit that the one that are not work outfits excite me the most. It is the daily look looks that I find the most fun but that is nothing new if I know me well.

As it is still very cold I wanted to include the very warm outfits as well as few spring options. As you can see we are still surrounded by patent heels, faux fur as the mob wife aesthetic is going strong and also the uniform pair of sneakers adidas Samba. I am still not convinced they are very me however the social media pressure is sometimes hard to resist.

I personally love the look my friend Lorna is wearing as the combination of the brown trousers, patent heels and the chocolate coat looks very chic. However chic is her second name. Her style is very timeless and she is the best at spotting quiet luxury items and always looks very expensive.

Leopard print has always been one of my favourites and so glad it is having a moment again. However, the real leopard print lovers will never stop wearing it. Many years ago I bought a pair of Leopard booties by Pucci in New York and I think I will keep them forever. I really do love the leopard print trousers with the faux fur jacket and pop of red. The mixture of textures is just incredible in this case.

Valentine’s Day Outfit Ideas you will love

Valentine’s Day Outfit Ideas

Valentine’s Day is round the corner and you may still be thinking about what to wear. I have some great ideas and inspiration whether you are more of a luxury or high-street girl. If you want to keep things simple and you like just jeans and top but nice nails that is also fine but nothing wrong with treating yourself to a lovely new dress.

MATCH YOUR DRESS TO THE VENUE

I love the idea of dressing up even at home and having a cute takeaway and movie night in. There are surely lot of girls that may organise Galentines day but if you are going out for dinner with your partner try to find out the dress code. Most restaurants will have that information on the website and sometimes you may have to play Sherlock on social media. Get a feel for a place but I personally love dressing up. Imagine what a lovely evening to dress up to feel good and make sure your partner will not take eyes of you. I love a lot Magda Butrym and Alessandra Rich dresses if you can splurge but there are many on high-street with similar vibe.

And if your budget lets you get yourself some fabulous shoes and perhaps even a bag. And I have great offer for you with COS as you can get 10 % with your first order.

12 COS WORKWEAR ITEMS TO BUY RIGHT NOW

12 COS WORKWEAR ITEMS TO BUY RIGHT NOW

Let’s face it that we spend most of the time in the office and I remember so well the struggle of what to wear. Each day you try to come out with different outfit, look professional but also feel good. I know daily outfits for spring are probably more fun to think about. However, we still need to nail that professional uniform.

HOW TO SHOP FOR WORKWEAR

The best way to build up your work wardrobe is simply create a good capsule wardrobe and perhaps add few items that can spice up the timeless items. Of course so many companies have very strict rules when it comes to dressing however most allow items like shirts, tailored trousers and jackets. Try to keep your colour palette more neutral as that is always safe but if there are no restriction of course you can go crazier.

A good suit can be also pink, red or green but only if you can. Most larger corporates with have their own dress policy and that is a huge part of your decision making.

COS has alway some incredible pieces that are simple yet they offer something extra whether it is a cut or texture.
