Jumpsuit: George at Asda, Duster Jacket: Primark, Shoes: Primark
How far into October can we justify the topic/discussion of
transitioning our wardrobe from summer to autumn as the temperatures are all
over the place at the moment? Surely I can drag it on another week or two
right?
The hardest part of styling an outfit at the moment is
deciding on the outerwear for the day, as I mentioned before the temperatures
keep rising as the day goes on. I could leave for work in a morning needing my
thick winter coat and then when I leave it is pretty much t-shirt weather.
I am a fan of layering, it is my go to throughout the last
four months of the year, as the temperatures fluctuates so much it is nice to
know that you are rarely too hot or too cold. Hence my reasoning of trying a
duster jacket for the first time.
I’ve got to say that I have mixed feelings regarding duster
jackets, more so the longer length ones. Don’t get me wrong I think you can
find absolutely beautiful ones and whenever I see someone rocking one I always
think they look effortlessly stylish and then when I try one on I feel like I
am wearing a bin bag and look so shapeless.
This particular one from Primark has been in my wardrobe for
some time now and it I thought it would go perfectly with this jumpsuit I owned
and to be fair I quite like the way this outfit looked.
I'm not going to lie, I was so out of my comfort zone wearing this with
these cut out boots and duster jacket (I think it was the jacket) but it took
10 whole minutes before I dared to step foot out of the front door! I know, I
know, I really need to sort myself out. After looking back at the photos I
kinda like the way I styled it up and would actually venture out somewhere
other than to take photos in it.
I’d love to hear how you style up
a duster jacket.
