I bought this jacket way back in September on one of my big shopping splurges see here, but seem to have forgotten to get organised enough to show it. This shoot is from the reign of Polly, so the shots will still be of the highest of standards you've come to expect of her, and me (creepy laughter heard dimly in the background).
Since I made my purchase, the satin bomber has become ten-a-penny, but I forgive the masses for falling for such an adorable piece of transitional dress, and trust that no-one has come across one as delightful as my bronze, embroidered example (again - rah-ha-ha-ha-ha!)
The dress was a present from Sasha for Mother's day, last seen here, and is fabulous with the jacket don't you agree? The embroidery echos the print of the dress really well, the gold boots carry on the metallic theme. That's about it for this mid-week offering. Hope you're all recovering from the Halloween ghouls and ghosties, and that you've finally managed to scour off the last of the black eyeliner. My eerie laughter will soon die down too.
Details - dress: H&M, boots: River Island, jacket: TK Maxx, rings: old.

Oh that is a beautiful dress and the bomber jacket is a great with it. I love the boots, you're definitely all of a sparkle there.
ReplyDeleteWhat will you do without your trusty photographer?
Enjoy your week, Anna

The bit of sparkle did the job to cheer up a bit of midweek blahs. Of course I'm going to miss Polly, but remember I did get by last winter thanks to my trusty tripod and timer. I've got a lovely stash of photos still waiting to be used too.

Love the bomber and those golden booties.
ReplyDeleteI fear you're going to just have to learn how to work the remote on your camera, like the rest of us poor sods.

Glad you like the bit of sparkle too. The truth is, I seemed to get by last year with my timer and tripod so I'll probably survive this one too.

The bomber and dress make a perfect pair. I enjoy seeing those colors on others (can't wear them with my complection) and they're particularly lovely when done in a satin.
ReplyDeleteYou're wearing the type of outfit that's my usual "go to" with hues of the same color. Sometimes when you wear a bright or unusual color it's fun to just saturate yourself in it instead of highlighting one area of your body with the "pop" of color. I also think all one hue can be thinning.
Golly Judy, you're right, it can be nice to wear the same colour all over - it's quite a calm look for a change don't you think? I'm not like a set of traffic lights for once! And yes, the effect can be very slimming too. So glad you like it all x

It is amazing how the bomber has invaded the blogging world this fall!
ReplyDeleteI have one but it's a bright mint green, so I haven't thought to wear it lately!! I'll have to follow my own advice and forget certain colors for certain times only!
I love the metallic one you're wearing Anna! It is perfect with that dress!!

Hey, at least we're bang on trend then Jodie, which is grand for us older gals eh? I'll look forward to seeing your mint green bomber - what colour will you wear with that I wonder?

A modern mod and a muse all in the same week?!
ReplyDeleteFabulous Anna...I love this look :oD

That's me Sam, mixing it up big time! Glad this gets your vote x

You know I would just rip this whole outfit off you and run away with it! Good thing you don't live closer. When you get tired of that GORGEOUS jacket, I could find it a home... ;-P
ReplyDeleteSheila, I think you'd totally rock this outfit, and for that, very selfish, reason I'm gonna have to hold onto it for a while longer. I promise I'll keep you in mind...
DeleteHave a great day x

Sasha is very kind. That dress is gorge! The bomber and shoes are such a great combination and go with the dress wonderfully!x
ReplyDeleteIt was a lovely gift and a perfect choice for me too. Glad you like the mix - I was pretty pleased with the outcome too!
DeleteSee you soon x
Anna
Those boots are wonderful and the dress is fabulous! Isn't it annoying when something you've loved suddenly gets trendy? The up side is that the chazzas will be full of bomber jackets in a couple of months time and you can add to your collection. xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks for that Vix! Yes, at least I'll have a chance to pick up more like this for a song. I'm sure it'll be worth waiting for.
DeleteHave a good day x

Fantastic jacket, but your dress is just perfect :) . Great colour coordination ;) . Love your rings - AS ALWAYS :D . Have a nice day - Margot :)
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty understated for me colourwise, but sometimes it's nice to play things down when there's so much razzle dazzle going on. Thanks for dropping by and for your lovely comments x

Another lucky find and such a gorgeous colour. Styled perfectly too.
