Thank you for the tag, ...Dear Ali, what a bargain! Thank you for the tag, I'm flattered although I certainly couldn't give you better advice than TNMA, Kate, Ruth or Dash but I'll tell you what I would wear it with - a long sleeved v neck top (not a jumper, something flattering. A skinny jean or trouser and boots with a heel. I did have a sheepskin stole in the same colour, I'll see if it's still knocking about when I have the "wardrobe clearout" I keep banging on about.<br /><br />I'm still smiling about AW10 being a postcode.

TNMA is right to say keep what you wear with it streamlined and simple.<br /><br />Navy will look wonderful and lavender plus white. Of course black goes without saying. If you were camel/beige with it add a splash of red. Most of all have fun and enjoy your bargain!Make Do Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00664054121622011335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-57238668809992598242010-08-29T20:47:06.310+01:002010-08-29T20:47:06.310+01:00NS - we shall cling together in the fashion wilder...NS - we shall cling together in the fashion wilderness.

I feel duty-bound to offer some guidance. OK, the jacket is quite shaggy so it's best to keep everything else simple and streamlined. So, That's Not My Age recommends slim black pants and a simple black top - or a shift/jersey dress. Again, black is always a safe bet but I quite like camel and grey so you could try that little combination and kill two trends with one jacket.That's Not My Agehttp://thatsnotmyage.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-50696717508784608582010-08-29T13:47:21.580+01:002010-08-29T13:47:21.580+01:00I love it, and you are right to buy jacket a litt...I love it, and you are right to buy jacket a little smaller and not fasten it far more flattering xxWildernesschichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00204518870992194687noreply@blogger.com
