Go red for February!

Hello and welcome to our Style Not Age challenge for this month. Hilda's come up with this month's theme of Go red for February, a lively idea I would say. I've fully entered into the swing of things as you can see so let's have a look at the others now shall we?

Hilda's red sweater and bag are by Irish brand, Lennon and Courtney, worn with blue wide legged jeans for this stylish and yet casual look. See more from Hilda on her blog Over the Hilda now.

At the smarter end of the scale is Jacqui in her woman-about-town look. She's sporting a few variations of red along with her new cream faux leather skirt by Izabel. Catch up with her latest news on Mummabstylish.

Emma's mixing things up for a quirky and fun look for her Go Red offering. Emma isn't timid in her dressing and it always pays off. Read her back story on her blog the Style Splash.

I'm thrilled to be wearing this suede fringed jacket for the first time. I'm not sure why it's taken me six months to showcase it, but here we are. I found it in a vintage shop in Penzance last year and kept on waiting for the right moment to wear it. This challenge was the perfect prompt!

I paid £45 for the jacket which, considering it's real suede isn't a bad price at all. Adding the tartan trousers may not be the obvious for everyone, but to me it seemed like a great idea. The trousers were a charity shop find from last year too.

A full fringe across the back of the jacket deserved a bit of a twirl!

The cream rib knit sweater was a high street buy last year, one of those versatile pieces that you can't go wrong with. 

The white leather cowboy boots by All Saints tie in perfectly with the fringed jacket.

Never fear mixing fun jewellery with classic pieces. It's easy to stick by the rules, but much more fun to make your own. The plastic ring was a thrift purchase and the silver scribble ring is by Emily Nixon.

It was such a relief to see the sunshine this weekend! I'm sure we're all pretty fed up with the relentless rain. It's been feeling much more spring-like here - hopefully I've not spoken too soon!

Many thanks for joining us for the monthly round up. Did you go red in Feb? Maybe we've given you an idea or two...
