A bit of jungle in a bomber jacket

might just be what one needs to have some impact. Combine flowers with stripes and one gets a concoction that rocks my boat. I wasn’t intending to go shy, so red lingerie like top was a must and then obviously a red bag to go with it. The only demure items are the black pencil skirt and white sandals. The jacket was another charity shop find. Whoever priced the items did not know the label as I got it for a fiver. It would have cost over a hundred fifty pounds when brand new. The weather is getting finer and looks like the bare leg season has just begun.

    Lookbook:

    Vest: Armani Exchange

    Trousers: Primark

    Sandals: Primark

    The simplest of the outfits: vest, trousers and sandals. The sequines do all the talking. The colours very classic: red, navy blue and white. Simple bracelet for an extra interest.

    E’s lookbook ‘Layer cake’

    Lookbook:

    Earrings DIYed

    Blouse: TwoFourTwo

    Trousers: Primark

    Belt unknown

    Sandals: Select

    When I look at this image I think layer cake. Each colour is separated by the other going from the earrings to the sandals. The earrings are DIYed from a necklace that I did not like. The blouse I have altered to fit me better. And the belt in the trousers I have replaced with a more suitable one. It’s all in the detail.

    E’s lookbook ‘Flowery corset’

    Lookbook:

    Corset: Adigia

    It may be the last time I’m showing bare shoulders before the season of sweaters and jackets starts all over again. A simple outfit with 2 garments of clothing and barely-there sandals.

    E’s lookbook ‘Autumnal birds’

    Lookbook:

    Earrings: Primark

    Blouse: Monsoon

    Trousers: Attitude by Renee

    Sandals: Select

    This is a bit autumnal look. The colours are not so vivid. The blouse served me well over the years, despite the statement sleeves, that are specific to a certain era, the blouse has this boho vibe that I like. Paired with trousers that were gifted and I find the colour challenging, but the fit is impeccable. White sandal as a homage to almost gone summer and statement earrings because I barely wear them.

    E’s lookbook ‘Dark green and vivid pink’

    Lookbook:

    Necklace unknown

    Blouse: River Island

    Trousers: Primark

    Sandals: Primark

    Has anyone spotted yet my obsession with pairing green with pink this season? I just can’t help myself. I find it so fresh. This is another take on the theme. The blouse has some intricate stripes situation, but the main interest lies with the quite oversised necklace that I had for years now. I have kept everything else rather plain. The colour of the sandals matches one of the colours in the necklace. This is what I would be wearing if I was allowed outside.

    E’s lookbook ‘Nautical preppy’

    Lookbook:

    Earrings: Primark

    Vest: H&M

    Cardigan: Primark

    Skirt: M&S

    Sandals: Select

    Bag: Rowallan

    I am very pleased with this look. I have bought this cardigan at the beginning of the year because it looked very preppy to me. I prefer navy blue to black and I have a lot of things in this colour. As I was rummaging through my things I have come across the skirt that I got in a charity shop a long time ago and it all clicked, the colours are spot on. I have chosen green, stripy vest to make it more modern and give it some interest and also because I’m obsessed with green at the moment. The pale gold earrings match the hardware in the cardigan.

    E’s lookbook ‘Navy blue and yellow’

    Lookbook:

    Earrings: Primark

    Top-vintage

    Shorts: Primark

    Belt unknown

    Sandals: Primark

    So, I’m stuck at home. It’s pandemic out there and for the greater good, I have to stay home, so I’m doing. But if I was allowed outside that’s probably what I would be wearing. You have probably spotted a trend here: shorts cut out of trousers that I already have and not very often wear. This pair of trousers is made from quite thick fabric and the material didn’t fold nicely at the hem, so the trousers got hardly ever worn. But we do not like such items in our wardrobes, they have to perform or go or get altered. After some DIY I can wear shorts when it’s still warm but I’m also hoping to wear them with tights when it gets colder. Today I went all yellow, lighter with the top, and stronger with the accessories.

    E’s lookbook ‘ More green and floral pink’

    Lookbook:

    Earrings: Primark

    V-neck: Topshop

    Bracelet unknown

    Trousers: H&M

    Sandals: Select

    Well, let’s be honest there is only so much you can do with a pair of trousers in summer weather. This look is more for the evening when the temperatures drop a little and you can actually bear a long sleeve. I do seem to like this particular shade of green as I do have a couple of things that go together. The same idea with sandals but these are more cream colour than stark white and a matching bracelet and pale gold earrings, as a necklace, in my opinion, would be too much.

    E’s lookbook ‘Floral and white’

    Lookbook:

    Shirt: Tu

    Trousers: H&M

    Sandals: Primark

    Bag: DKNY

    As you can see the trousers are staying with me. Now I need to try to style them differently every time. So this time a little bit 50ties style with a white linen shirt tied at the waist, big, black shopper and flat, white sandals.
