Jackets have always been an obsession of mine. They're so great because of their transformation power; throw a slouchy striped vintage blazer over skinny jeans and a vest and you instantly have a unique, androgynous look. Pairing a little white lace dress with a khaki military cropped jacket (I have a cute one from H&M) brings it from girlie summer to chic autumnal instantly. I have blazers, hoodies, cropped, leather... you name it, I have it. At least thats what I thought. But there are several amazing styles hitting the shops, many of which are must haves! There are two particular styles I am coveting, and desperately saving up for!
Aviator Jacket

Next do a great jacket, but I cant copy it.
This is a cute New Look version. |
This jacket originates from pilots jackets, eg Amelia Earhart,
legendary aviatrix, who pioneered this practical yet stylish cover-up. It's bulky shape and sheepskin detail looks fab contrasting with a little lace skirts or dresses. And of course, finish it off with divine little lace up boots and slouchy socks.
Parkas

| Loving this H&M style |
The unlikely hit layering piece of this season. Parkas originally derive from the less then fashionable mens anoraks, yet somehow they are so gorgeous. Usually a khaki, light and long coat, they look perfect teamed with little floral dresses or skinny jeans and a bright top. (Very festival chic.) H&M have a really great selection, with 4 different options. As well as being cute, many of them are wool lined, which adds warmth. I'm desperate for one of these, but unfortunately I cannot afford one right now. (Although they are reasonably priced at £30-£40.)
Sorry for the long post guys, but there was so much to say!
Keep stylish xxxx
Yes, get in there Victorian boots and slouchy socks and the parka and floral dress! Score!
