DOUBLE UP

Spring is here, summer is on the way but it's still mighty chilly, the answer .... LAYERS! The magazine and fashion bods always say this as if it is incredibly easy to look awesome wearing 50 items at a time   but I never seem to pull it off in a way that doesn't make me look like I fell out of my wardrobe backwards. 

However, I may have had a a moment of brilliance, or I may be delusional if I am please don't pop my bubble for a few more days, the double jacket combo! I love it, stonewash denim jacket with a lovely leather biker. It gives a great collar combo, especially with a semi-sheer white shirt, I think I'm going to pair it with a striped crop and pastel mid-skirt next...

Any other layering combos throw 'em at me I'm on a roll!

COTTDSXCANON OUTFIT ENTRY

One of my favourite blogs COTTDS, is running an AMAZING collaboration with Canon, on instagram, to win a TDF (to die for) SLR camera. Come to Mama! 

Above is the picture I entered, but I thought I'd share some of the other shots as well.

The boy was not on hand this weekend, so my gorgeous friend Anna stepped in with her fabulous iphone snapping skills.

Im actually a little bit in love with this outfit. The jacket, I've already shamelessly declared my love for in a previous post and the dress is my 'go to' at the moment as it's got this great boxy shape, BUT, mostly I loved this outfit because I got to revel in the fact that it was hugely impractical to be wearing socks with open toe wedges on a rainy Saturday afternoon! Next I'm going to try some chunky cable knit slouchy socks. 

Wish me luck!
