It sounds like an oxymoron…but for us Brits, there is such a thing as a ‘summer jacket’ (part of the reason I did this post in fact, is that it’s huge in SEO – techy term for ‘people google it a lot’). I featured this jacket in my ‘High Street buys that could pass for Isabel Marant’ post and then convinced myself that I needed to try it. Lighter weight than usual jackets, it’s more of a cardigan (but way more sexy) – I’d usually pair with a t-shirt but have tried with this season’s boho blouse for something different.

I never wear Monsoon, and this was a great, unexpected change. The bag is also gorgeous, doesn't fit much in but I've been wearing it nonstop x
This outfit is perfecttionn! I LOVE those jeans!

Thank you – I was so pleased with them – and so comfy too x
Lovely jacket! As someone who feels the cold, even in summer, this is a great alternative to the ubiquitous denim jacket. LOVE!
I always feel the cold…and have also been living in my denim jacket – and now have moved to a leather jacket -so this is such a nice change!
You've styled it really well Alex! I tried this a couple of weeks back when you first featured it on instagram. Unfortunately it wasn't for me but it looks fab o you xx
Thank you – the peasant top is my new wardrobe shifter. I would've previously worn just a tee but this feels more modern…x
Hi Alex! could you tell me the reference number of that beautifull blouse? I´ve been looking for it a long time ago…thanks in advance!
Love your style!
Kisses from Spain 😉
