#light coat

1931 George Hoyningen-Huene, Lee Miller Wearing A Light Coat By Madeleine Vionnet. 

Description: Lee Miller wearing low-slung Reboux hat, light coat with large dark collar by Madeline Vionnet, and dark gloves, seated. 

Today a very short post to introduce a tweed light blue coat.  As soon as I saw it in Dunnes Stores website I knew I needed it.  The Irish Dunnes Stores and its exclusive brands offer nice deals at very competitive prices .

For sure I was not wrong when I ordered this coat as everytime I wear it I have lots of complements. I love it for its striking textured design, it’s elevated by frayed trims…

I love its lightness, the A line, the three quarter length sleeves and the fact it has side pockets. The black and white print makes it versatile with dresses and troussers. I like to pair it with leggings for a comfortable but polished look. But it is also cute with a dressier looks. 

In this occasion we pair it with an old black dress, black shoes and purse as well as a men´s umbrella as the day we took the photos it was raining although later on it was sunny and clear.  What is your favorite animal print?  What do you pair light coats with? Have fun and See you in my next one. Blessings and hugs. 

El animal print se ha puesto de moda hace varias temporadas. Este otoño invierno nos toca el print de leopardo pero huyo del mismo como un nublado. Sin embargo, no renuncio a llevar estampado animal porque me parece un clásico si bien prefiero algo más versátil en blanco y negro como este abriguito de Cortefiel. En cuanto lo vi, pensé que sería mío y ahora que está rebajado ha caído en mis redes. Es muy fácil de combinar y queda genial con leggings, pantalones y vestidos. Se trata de un abrigo ligero línea evasé de mancha animal en blanco y negro con mangas tres cuartos y bolsillos laterales de vivo.

En esta ocasión lo presentamos con un vestido viejuno negro en un outfit monocromático – como de costumbre –  y con complementos en ese color. Como veis llevo un paraguas negro de hombre pues el día amaneció lluvioso si bien cuando tomamos las fotos había aclarado y se quedó en una día espectacular.

¿Qué tipo de estampado animal es vuestro favorito? ¿En qué prendas lo lleváis?

Gracias de nuevo por vuestro cariño. Os espero en le próximo post. Besos infinitos.

In my case, I prefer navy blue as a neutral and this season I have revisited my wardrobe to rescue all the items that are in the blue sphere.  These are all wardrobe classics I already know and have loved for years so I wear them repeatedly season after season. Some of them are popular in the blog but when it comes to fashion, I’ve just learned to be much more comfortable in my own skin, so I wear what makes me happy and what makes me feel confident.  What I would like to point is that once you have found your personal style you could make variations and be creative with it as well as you can try new things out of your comfort zone but always keep your closet full of pieces you love and that fit perfectly in your personal style.

  This spring my mood balances between blues, pinks and bits of creams and beiges and I will try to like more and more these clear hues and incorporate them in form of basic pieces to give more versatility to my wardrobe.

One of these items is my favorite spring coat. This ModCloth creation I purchased last year before the brand stopped its delivery to the EU. It was defined as a floral blue and green cotton trench but for me it is a spring coat. It has a retro look with its fit and flared design with a navy belt to cinch your waist and a wonderful teal lining. Today I paired it with a red little handbag and red ballerinas.

Are you fond of floral spring coats? Do you prefer trenches?

Have a nice day. Blessings and hugs.
