If anyone has the responsibility of dressing me for my funeral, the brief is simple - put me in a fitted blazer and your job is done. I'm not at the stage where I need to see a therapist but my addiction to blazers is a borderline obsession. They have been part of my staple capsule wardrobe for well over a decade and I can’t get enough.
In my defence, this new purchase is the only one in the collection that's a monochrome tweed blazer. I love the way it can be switched up instantly, as its oversized cut gives it an androgynous relaxed fit.
This ensemble was all about combining the tweed fabric with my my trusted leather mini skirt for contrast, along with my pair of sheer pattern tights. There's nothing like a shirt and bow tie to smarten up a look as well. After four months of lockdown wearing nothing but sweat pants, this was the first 'outing' look I pulled together. Good to know I still have some fashion sense!
