Jacket & Pumps at last!

This week has been amazing weather-wise. I got a whole line of washing dry today and it's not even lunchtime yet! So the pumps and a jacket came out of the wardrobe for the first time. With a scarf obviously.
Love this navy jersey jacket that I got last summer in Next. I find jackets quite restrictive to wear but as this is jersey, it's so comfy and I find myself wearing it around the house all day.
Jacket - Next SS13 (similar here & here)
Jeans - GAP (hearing great things about these similar Next ones)
Pumps - Anna Field @ Zalando (similar)
Cross Body Bag - Boden (similar)
White Jersey Tee - Dunnes (similar)
Red/Navy Leopard Scarf - SGS Shop
Now I'll admit that I had my ankle boots on by mid afternoon as my feet get very cold but it was just lovely to have the ankles on show and to know that summer is only weeks away. It did prompt a bit of a pump/slipper shoe buying fest which I'll share with you next post. I've found some gorgeous glittery ones...can't wait to get some photos later. Hope you're having a lovely Saturday.

    1. That would be so cool! I'm actually sorry I didn't size UP in mine...I'd love if it was a bit more spacious around the shoulders for wearing with more layers but I do still get so much wear from it. It's a great wee jacket, Ax

  12. Gorgeous scarf, that colour is amazing on you. Lovely lovely spring outfit. I have a different style of that jacket from last year and the waffle jersey is just so easy to wear, isn't it! And I remember it was SO cheap. I think mine's darker than yours, could almost be black. am LOVING this weather!
