Outfit

BIG

March 31, 2014


. BACK TO WORK .


So today is my first day back in work after a lovely week off skiing. My week off was seriously well needed … could you tell I was nearing break down? Thankfully a week of sunshine and skiing and some deserved R&R (i’m not sure i’ve slept so much in years, although I was ill twice on my week off … clearly my body finally unwinding from all the stress / food poisoning too) has done me a world of good. I’ve come back feeling revitalised and ready to progress full steam ahead.
. Marks & Spencer Pinstripe Coat £95 . Kurt Geiger Boots £150 . Citizens of Humanity Jeans £220 .
So in light of my first day back, I thought it would be a pertinent time to showcase a more ‘suited’ look with a simple black skinny jean (Citizens of Humanity) teamed with my M&S structured boyfriend suit style pinstripe coat. This coat immediately creates an air of professionalism due to the colour, cut & length, when I pop it on I immediately feel like i’m ready for a business meeting. It also reminds me of Tom Hanks in BIG due to the proportions & the fact it could pass off as my dads coat … Jase kindly pointed this out too.
Are you a fan of the oversized masculine suit style coat which is becoming increasingly popular?
