Style not Age show how to Belt Up!

Hello, nice to have you follow along. 
Hope you’ve had a super weekend. 

Hasn’t the weather been strange.  We’ve had sleet, rain, wind and sunshine - all in one day last week. It’s got a bit warmer which is nice but who knows what it’ll be like this week!
I’ve been working in the house over the past couple of days. David and I have been laying floor boards on the first floor so it’s getting ready for first fix electrics and plumbing to get going. David and I have also been planning the rooms, you know where we want lights, plugs and switches along with what layout we should have for the bathrooms and en-suite. There’s lots to think about but we’re very alike so it’s not been a problem as we tend to agree on most things. 

… that belts were going to be a thing for AW25.

It’s the last Monday of the month, so time to welcome my friends from Style not Age for our monthly challenge. This month it was my turn to choose and I’ve gone with this prompt as I know these are trending this season. So get settled for the theme …

Belt Up!

Styling a Classic Wool Coat from Land's End.

Morning all.
Hope your January is off to a good start.

Mine is going well and I've got a new enthusiasm for the blogging world again.
I’ve been grateful for some decent weather recently (not today though) so have taken a few nice photos for the blog and Instagram (follow me on IG here for more inspiration). That and the fact I’ve got more time on my hands as Christmas is over I’ve been able to put more effort into the blog and my social media platforms. It really is a full time job isn’t it!

Yesterday I had a very early start. I was up at 3.30 to go to the airport, unfortunately I wasn’t jetting off to a hot destination but was dropping my daughter and her family off for their trip to Disneyland Paris. The kids were so excited and I’m enjoying the fun from afar with the photos and messages. Have you ever been to DLP? 

Cycle class booked for today along with an early abs class too, so that’s me for the morning, hope to spend the afternoon taking photos if weather is permitting. 🤞

Cast your mind back to last Thursday when I shared a new jacket with you, it's an ultra light down jacket in a fashionable shade of green.  You can read all about my khaki beauty here.

Today I want to show you another stunning coat from Land's End, so do stay with me for all the details.

Items marked with * have been gifted to me, however these are 100% my own honest comments.
