Inspiration Monday
Monday, February 16, 2015It's been ages since I took part in an Inspiration Monday. Once I stopped I fell out of the habit but when I saw this week's inspiration picture, I knew it would be easy to recreate with items already in my wardrobe.
The inspiration this week is Kate Hudson in a casual outfit, although my take is slightly less glam in flat boots, no designer handbag.
This jacket first made an appearance in October 2012 when I first met Sophie and Caroline. It's been a staple in my wardrobe ever since. It's pretty lightweight but warm and has good sized pockets - big enough to hold my purse and phone and pop out bagless.
Jeans & Coat, Next | Boots, New Look | Snood, Debenhams.
I'd made myself a promise at the beginning of 2015 that I wouldn't buy anymore scarves, but this is so soft and snuggly, not to mention only £9.00 in the sale, I couldn't resist. It's also more of a snood, so I'm letting myself off on a sneaky technicality.
Pop on over to Two Birds Boutique to see how others have styled this look. Next week's Inspiration Monday is Rachel Bilson, can I manage two weeks in a row?
Did you have a good weekend? Mine consisted of some patchwork, some reading and some actual work - I'm designing a logo that you'll be able to see online pretty soon!

Me too, I'm plotting and planning...
DeleteBravo Hazel! You've done an excellent replica of the outfit and the scarf is gorgeous, definitely needed. AHRGH Hazel, I wasn't supposed to be buying anything and I bought lots of things on my Charity shop crawl today!x
ReplyDeleteYay! We need to see what you purchased!
DeleteI love your take on this look--that jacket looks warm and like it goes with everything, and I love the furry snood. (Totally not a scarf--I think it's allowed! :) )
ReplyDeleteGreat! That's settled then. Not a scarf.
DeletePopping over from the Inspiration Monday link up -- that is such a cozy scarf! Definitely worth breaking the scarf shopping ban!
ReplyDeleteLove how you styled your jacket!
