My joyful jacket

Hi there! How are you? I'm showcasing this, my joyful jacket, again today as I've reworked it with different boots and trousers this time. Sometimes I get hooked on a certain item in my wardrobe and this shaggy jacket is one of those things. I'm now calling it my joful jacket as it really does spark joy for me as Marie Kondo says. 

I remember being hugely influenced by the Fabulous Fashionista's TV show - way back in 2013. Jean talked about having no qualms about wearing the same dress for an entire week if it was her current passion. This comes back to me often when I'm having a love affair with a certain item of clothing.

I've recently bought these pink Zara trousers which are the same as my yellow ones worn with the same jacket a couple of weeks ago see here. I love the fabric and hang of these wide legged trousers and the length is good too for me as I'm not that tall. The pink version have two back pockets though which is a bonus point.

I've added my pink floral Converse boots to change up the look this time. I've had these for yonks and only came across them stored in a box recently where I'd packed them away for the summer and forgot to bring them out - better late than never eh? The cream lace bodysuit is one of two that I bought this summer from Vinted. One has long sleeves, the other short and both have proven to be very useful when worn with trousers - I love the sleek fit without the fuss of tucking in or hems and edges of fabric showing through. 

I dodged across to Old Grimsby for this photo shoot. This beach path is a favourite backdrop of mine. I'm featuring my new orange velour handbag here again along with my old pink and orange necklace from Zara and preloved rings. My favourite Radley sunglasses are back again too.

Now that the clocks have changed I'm going to have to plan things better to capture shots during good daylight. This weekend just past was grey and dull which wasn't the least bit inspiring. Luckily I'd taken these photos last weekend when it was bright and breezy. I used my tripod and timer for these shots and felt a bit of an idiot when someone walked past and I was sitting down posing for this shot - they said nothing, simply raised their eyebrows as they walked on by, hence this reaction from me. Yes, that me's - that crazy lady from the Gallery!
