Need now ? A fabulous choc brown slouchy leather jacket ! #netaporter

By  |  1 Comment

I’ve been looking for leather jackets lately – Something bomber style with a Miu Miu/Prada vibe.
The search is over !
I nabbed this fabulous pleather jacket from Netaporter and it has ticks in all the boxes:

* An exaggerated, oversized cut with big shoulders ( massive!) which means it looks fashiony ( that’s the aim right?) ✔️
* A zip front gives it a sporty relaxed vibe ✔️
* A funnel neck, very on trend (my favorite as I’m not a fan of fussy collars ).✔️
* An elastic waist (or drop waist really!) So versatile it gives you the option to wear it different ways. Zip it up to sit on your waist or let it hang loose and undone over your bottom✔️
* It’s a rich khaki brown : it works back with blacks and browns but also with FiFi approved cream and khaki ✔️

 

Styling tips:

A big oversized jacket like this really needs to be balanced out with a narrow skirt. It’s a massive size jacket ( I’m wearing a size small : you get the idea! ). When I tried it with a full skirt there was just too much fabric. Even for me!
But a midi pencil skirt seems to be the right proportion (as are the black flares and the barrel leg jeans)

I’ve layered the jacket over a simple cream knit, but it would also work with camel, brown or even black. A polo neck for sure. Or over a white tee. Just keep the neckline clean as the jacket is the piece making the statement.

As always I use a brown bag to finish the look. Black boots anchor the black skirt . And the white shoes break up the dark colours and add a little fashion edge. But you know that by now right? !

I’m wearing a size small in the jacket.
