Challenging...

Hello people. It's been a while. I've bought a LOT of clothes lately but I never seem to be able to get any decent photos of me wearing them. These are far from decent, but I feel this outfit deserved a post and if I wait for my husband to do the honours, well it will never happen. This is the kind of outfit that I really love. It feels kind of cool. 

These jeans have been a challenge. I love the style (ankle grazers are my favourite) but the colour is way out of my comfort zone. Fat legs and light denim... shudder...  But you know what, I wore them all day and out in public and no one batted an eyelid. Shocker. 

I've been searching everywhere for a blazer but I can't for the life of me find one in the style I want. I'm all about the cardigans usually, but sometimes you just want to be a bit smarter than that. Most of the ones I have tried have been too short, where can I get a decent longline blazer??

I bought this coat on a whim to fill my jacket void when I had an M&S discount code and I'm pretty pleased with it. It's not too heavy so is ok for summer and it's kind of cool, right? I love the cocoon shape and the fact that it's not exactly subtle. 

The top is also another current love of mine, it has a sheer back which adds a hint of sexiness, but it's not too revealing (the grey version is very revealing so I feel the need to wear a vest with it so as not to share my back fat with the world, one day I may stop giving any f*cks). I have a lot of the ASOS swing vests which are awesome, but sometimes you need a little sleeve. Please ASOS, more of these.
