My F&F Jacket.

Morning all. 
How are you?

Did your first weekend in April go well?
A busy one for me with a fabulous dinner with friends sandwiched in between helping Sophie with two cake stalls on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday’s was a new one for her and a first for the venue too. She did okay and got herself noted for further events in the coming months, I just hope the weather improves next time because it’s on a hill overlooking the estuary - so was extremely windy! We had to hold the gazebo down at times and sent out messages for who ever was visiting us to bring a big coat!
Sunday was less intense as the stall was inside, trouble was when we arrived we were right by the window which had super sunshine rays flooding in, good for me to be warm but not good for the butter cream and cakes!!
I felt totally exhausted when I got home, having to have a sneaky sleep mid-afternoon! 
Monday seemed to arrived way too quickly for my liking! 
I’ve got a couple of things on this week, so maybe I’ll have a bit of a more time to relax!



You might have seen I bought this jacket on Vinted a couple of weeks ago. It was much cheaper than the ones in store so I really got a bargain! It’s going to be a brilliant addition to lots of outfits in the coming months. The blouson style is very flattering for my pear shape. It gives me a nice feminine shape, balancing everything out beautifully. 


I’m wearing that pretty little pink knit again, it’s the one I wore with my new denim jacket and pink jeans. It’s a nice casual top that’s an essential in a wardrobe. I need lots of other colours and found a buttery yellow one in Primark recently. So I’m on the lookout from now on!


These barrel leg jeans have been on repeat for a few weeks now. They’re a great style for all shapes and look super with trainers, sandals, flats (like mine today) or boots. I’ve just taken charge of some new suede ankle boots. I know boots aren’t going to be getting that much wear come the warmer months but with our changeable temperatures I’ll definitely be getting my monies worth!


Final addition was my leather sling hobo bag from Elie Beaumont and I’m happy to say I’m still affiliated with them and you can take full advantage of my 10% discount code using JQ10 at checkout. Do have a look at my latest addition which is in a pretty spring coloured blush pink. 


Thanks very much for joining me today, hope you’ve got something nice planned this week. 
Catch you on Thursday. 
Bye for now. X
