So, in my head, I have the most chic outfit for a special evening.....
silk trousers (slim fit or peg style, cropped at ankle for preference)
silk tank/cami
slouchy sequin jacket with shawl collar (in navy....already own)
Much trauling of sites and real life stores is proving fruitless. Either items are hideously bulky polyester faux silk (I don't mind polyester, per se...I do mind bulky could be used as curtains fabric)
I have, in desperation, ordered these:
these from Hobbs but I fear they are way too shiny to team with sequin jacket
and these:
from Anthropologie which despite being polyester are hopefully not bulky
As you can see, I am not afraid of a bit of colour and I would describe my style as chic bohemian (yes, that made me wince too but I am struggling here).......think Laura Bailey, without the long legs/house in Notting Hill.
I have already ordered and returned these from ASOS and these from Whistles .....which I know wouldn't work with navy but I was desperate and would forego the navy link.
