Sartorial Elegance With The Perfect Cut, Fit & Fabric
(Shot on iPhone)
From high vis to vintage tweed, deconstructed designs to high shine trenches, of course we each have a preferred style. Ahh, the humble coat. ‘Tis the season to get them out and of course, we each have a favourite (by ‘a’ favourite, I mean, probably, like three). Now you guys KNOW I love myself a thick teddy coat but when it comes to some serious sartorial elegance, I choose my cover ups wisely. The fit, cut and fabric has to be just right!
As I do every year, I had a trawl through what Boden have to offer. I love Boden coats, the quality and flattering fit is second to none and I rarely find an alternative on the high street that’s worth investing in. Sure the price tag is a little on the premium side but when you walk in to the average shop these days I can’t help but feel those other guys are over pricing their stuff. Boden on the other hand is totally worth it. I still have my gorgeous pink one from last year; they really are timeless classics.
The Eastbourne Coat
So this season I chose this gorgeous wool blend Eastbourne coat and I just love it. It comes in three colours and each has a contrasting velvet collar. I don’t know about you guys but I love a turned up collar, I feel like it makes any jacket or coat so much cooler!
The blue is great because its totally understated and worn with a simple blue skinny jean, it’s the perfect coat for everyday wear. I wore mine with the beautiful navy kitten heel mules (also Boden) and just a simple white cami – great for taking Mia for a walk or popping to the shops.

You look so pretty in these pictures. Did you see that they are opening up a Boden shop in Westfields?
Hello!
I’m totally obsessed by this coat, and impossible to have it in France. May you buy another one this year and want to sell it?
I’m here!
