Waxed wings

Hello lovely people! I hope you are all having wonderful Bank Holiday Mondays, wherever you are.  I can’t describe how much the sunshine and warmth has lifted my mood today.  Somehow just going for a little run along the beach this morning, seeing people eating breakfast in cafés on the beachfront and painting beach huts; just makes me feel like there’s a world of possibility and good things coming. There’s no better place to be than the coast on a day like today.  We took these photos on Saturday and there definitely wasn’t as much sunshine then!

I’ve been searching for a light, waxed jacket for some time, for morning dog walks and throwing on over jeans. For waxed jackets, Barbour will always have my heart (especially after trying on a beautiful one at their shop in Bicester, I have been dreaming about it ever since!).  This one from Repertoire Fashion is just the dream – thick enough for chilly mornings and showers, but light enough to wear over a t-shirt on a slightly warmer day.  And goes with jeans like peas and carrots.

Isn’t that jacket just a beaut? I love the lining, I always turn up the sleeves on jacket so it’s nice to have a pretty check hiding underneath! I owe a big thanks to Tom for taking these photos – I haven’t done outfit photos in ages but didn’t he do a good job? (My beautiful new Canon 6d probably helped, but still).





How are you spending your Bank Holiday Monday?
