I love nothing more than a bit of a statement and when it comes to slipping bold shapes into my wardrobe. I love mixing them with relatively normal items that my wardrobe is already full of! Recently I have seriously been a green eyed monster over an Aunt of mine. Her fashion sense is well and truly inspiring and she just always looks amazing, but one of her most favoured items is by far a cashmere jumper. I mean, I have seen her in loads of different coloured ones wore simply with jeans and very fashion forward shoes and it always looks so effortlessly cool. No fuss cashmere is where I am learning it is at and it is a perfect piece for layering. In fact in this outfit it is all it is. I have no vest on just this navy cashmere jumper and teamed with the denim jacket it is a perfect match. Simple, comfortable and coordinates perfectly with white and blue denim. I didn't really need any kind of statement top with this jacket anyway as the frills speak for themselves. As soon as I put it on my Spanish alter ego came out and I seemed to be waving towels around like I was some kind of skilled Matador! And I have been dancing round all day with a slight Hispanic air, a Pasadoble perhaps?
The frills certainly bring a brilliant statement to the very simply styled outfit, that's for sure. With these white, wide legged ankle skimmer jeans and some silver shoes; today's outfit has sure got me flitting round and feeling like the sun should be out!
I have been finding recently that I am really drawn to basic colours. Navy blue, actually, blue in a few shades, white, caramel, grey, all the good basics that give you a great range of colour combining across your wardrobe. With the odd soft pink thrown in and an odd day of bold colour I once again am changing my summer wardrobe of pretty much, denim and white everything into these cooler months with a few layering pieces to keep me warm. In fact swap the cashmere jumper in this outfit for a chambray cami and I am sorted for the middle of august!
Fancy a try of some of the items?
